Jesse

We met between the tables at that restaurant

Stealing glances in the middle of the rush

It didn't take us long to know just what we wanted

Six months later, we were saying vows at the courthouse

A whirlwind romance, but our hearts just knew

That I was meant to spend my life with you

Oh, Jesse, you're the rock I lean on

Protective and strong, you keep me safe and sound

With the greenest eyes I've ever seen

You can fix any broken thing you've found

I call you Baby, and when the day is through

You hold me tight every night, the way you always do

We built a beautiful life from where we started

Two wonderful children growing up so fast

You're the smartest man I know, always so willing

To do whatever it takes to make it last

When I start to doubt, you are so encouraging

Reminding me of the joy this love can bring

Oh, Jesse, you're the rock I lean on

Protective and strong, you keep me safe and sound

With the greenest eyes I've ever seen

You can fix any broken thing you've found

I call you Baby, and when the day is through

You hold me tight every night, the way you always do

Hitching up the travel trailer, chasing down the sun

Singing gospel music, our voices blending into one

Twenty-four years of harmony, singing out His grace

My favorite view is anywhere, as long as I see your face

Looking back at the whirlwind of how it began

I wouldn't change a single second of the ride

You're my husband, my protector, my best friend

And I'm so proud to be standing by your side

Through every highway mile and every song we sing

I'm safe with you, my shelter through everything

Oh, Jesse, you're the rock I lean on

Protective and strong, you keep me safe and sound

With the greenest eyes I've ever seen

You can fix any broken thing you've found

I call you Baby, and when the day is through

You hold me tight every night, I'm so in love with you

Yeah, you hold me tight every night, the way you always do
