Joey

Thirteen years ago on my mama's porch

You looked at me and you made your choice

You saw me sitting there and said, "She is mine"

An old-fashioned dreamer, honest and kind

You're a go-getter, Joey, a fighter and a lover

My beautiful husband, there is no other

You are my everything, my world, my best friend

I'll be right beside you until the very end

When we lock eyes and kiss, I go weak in the knees

You're the protective heart that brings me peace

I love you, daddie, to the moon and back, it's true

For every lifetime forward, I'm choosing you

You knew my heart, you knew what to do

A surprise trip to Carolina just for us two

You sat with my daddy and asked for my hand

You gave me a memory exactly as planned

It was the last time I saw him before he passed on

When my world fell apart, you were my dawn

You kept me so safe when the shadows grew tall

My strong, caring Joey, you carried it all

You are my everything, my world, my best friend

I'll be right beside you until the very end

When we lock eyes and kiss, I go weak in the knees

You're the protective heart that brings me peace

I love you, daddie, to the moon and back, it's true

For every lifetime forward, I'm choosing you

October thirty-first, two thousand eighteen

We tied the knot on our favorite Halloween

Late nights just singing, our voices combined

Spending time outdoors, leaving worries behind

With your big, loving heart, you inspire me each day

We can't be apart, come whatever may

You are my everything, my world, my best friend

I'll be right beside you until the very end

When we lock eyes and kiss, I go weak in the knees

You're the protective heart that brings me peace

I love you, daddie, to the moon and back, it's true

For every lifetime forward, I'm choosing you

You will always be mine, and I will be yours too

For every lifetime forward, I'm choosing you
