Barbara

Let's take it back to the very first night

The spark in the air, the feeling was right

We were just strangers, but we played a little game

Acting like we already shared the same last name

Pretending to be husband and wife right then

A beautiful joke, just playing pretend

But looking in your eyes, I think my soul already knew

That the role I was playing was destined to come true

Barbara, you're beautiful, loving, and smart

Your funny sense of humor put a lock on my heart

From the moment we met, my vision was clear

I want you beside me, year after year

So listen to me, baby, let me set it straight

I will always love you, and I will never hate

The woman of my dreams, my incredible wife

I will always be in love with you, baby, for life

Now I wake up beside you, no need to make believe

You're the sweetest part of the air that I breathe

With a mind so brilliant and a spirit so kind

You're the deepest connection that a man could ever find

I still smile when I think of how it all began

When I stepped right up and played your leading man

Now those invisible rings are made of solid gold

And I'm holding the hand that I'll forever hold

Barbara, you're beautiful, loving, and smart

Your funny sense of humor put a lock on my heart

From the moment we met, my vision was clear

I want you beside me, year after year

So listen to me, baby, let me set it straight

I will always love you, and I will never hate

The woman of my dreams, my incredible wife

I will always be in love with you, baby, for life

Through the highs and the lows, whatever comes our way

My devotion to you is always gonna stay

You're my safe place to land, my comfort and my peace

And this tender kind of rhythm is never gonna cease

There will never be a shadow, never be a doubt

Because you are the one I can't live without

Oh, Barbara, you're beautiful, loving, and smart

Your funny sense of humor put a lock on my heart

From the moment we met, my vision was clear

I want you beside me, year after year

So listen to me, baby, let me set it straight

I will always love you, and I will never hate

The woman of my dreams, my incredible wife

I will always be in love with you, baby, for life
