August sixteenth, nineteen ninety-six
We made a promise that was built to stick
My military man, so sharp and smart
But I’m the one who knows your teddy bear heart
You’ve always been the rock I lean upon
Thirty years together, and we're still going strong
ChorusTony, you’re my best friend, through the highs and the lows
The one I want beside me as the story goes
With the biggest heart that I’ve ever known
You make every highway feel just like home
Forever and always, tried and true
I just want to finish this life with you
Verse 2We traveled the States, working side by side
Taking on the country, enjoying the ride
Then came our two kids, and the traditions grew
Kansas City shopping sprees every year with you
Loading up the bags with a smile on your face
Making sweet memories all over the place
ChorusTony, you’re my best friend, through the highs and the lows
The one I want beside me as the story goes
With the biggest heart that I’ve ever known
You make every highway feel just like home
Forever and always, tried and true
I just want to finish this life with you
BridgeYou always keep me laughing, you're a funny kind of soul
Even when the weather's freezing and the wind is blowing cold
For thirty years of marriage, you've never let me ask
You just step out in the weather and you pump my tank of gas
Final ChorusTony, you’re my best friend, through the highs and the lows
The one I want beside me as the story goes
With the biggest heart that I’ve ever known
You make every highway feel just like home
Forever and always, tried and true
I just want to finish this life with you
