Dawn

We started out as friends back in Gilbert town

Took a little time, but we laid our roots down

You’re a hard worker, taking life in your stride

So easy-going, with nothing to hide

We took a little trip just to make it right

And said our forever in a Vegas chapel light

Dawn, my love was real, my love was true

I only loved one enough to marry, and that was you

So pretty and smart, with a heart so wide

The love of my life, standing right by my side

I still remember the music filling the room

David Sanborn playing in the candlelit gloom

Just you and me in that intimate space

I saw my whole future right there in your face

From the dogs that you love to the horses you ride

I look at you, baby, with nothing but pride

Dawn, my love was real, my love was true

I only loved one enough to marry, and that was you

So pretty and smart, with a heart so wide

The love of my life, standing right by my side

Then came the day we had our little girl

You brought a brand new magic into my world

You stepped right in, helped raise my daughters too

There is no limit to the loving things you do

You held us together with a tender grace

I found my heaven in your embrace

Dawn, my love was real, my love was true

I only loved one enough to marry, and that was you

So pretty and smart, with a heart so wide

The love of my life, standing right by my side

Yeah, my love was real, and my love was true

The only one I married, Dawn, is you
