Bert

I was broken by the past, I’d given up on love

Praying for a partner sent from heaven up above

Then you’d come walking through the doors at the store

Yelling "Hey baby!" across the floor

I’d smile and roll my eyes, trying to hide my face

But soon I was looking for you daily in that place

You brought a spark of hope I hadn't felt before

My quirky, caring man, leaving me wanting more.

Bert, you are the calm during the storm

My safe place, the home that keeps me warm

You might not believe it, but I swear it's true

God answered every prayer the day He gave me you

Place me like a seal over your heart

I'll fight for you, we'll never be apart.

Sitting on the bed, just holding each other tight

Talking about our future deep into the night

You make me feel beautiful, sexy, and seen

Showing me what building a real life can mean

You remember the little things that most men just forget

You don't mind the dishes, and you help me make the bed

You're hardworking, passionate, and giving to the core

Every single day, you make me love you more.

Bert, you are the calm during the storm

My safe place, the home that keeps me warm

You might not believe it, but I swear it's true

God answered every prayer the day He gave me you

Place me like a seal over your heart

I'll fight for you, we'll never be apart.

We’ll have our ups and downs, our ins and outs

But I will never turn my back, so let go of your doubts

Love covers over faults, it binds us up in grace

Touched by God Himself when I look into your face

I want to spend forever standing by your side

With perfect unity and nothing left to hide.

'Cause Bert, you are the calm during the storm

My safe place, the home that keeps me warm

You won my heart and soul on a level so profound

The deepest kind of love that I have ever found

Place me like a seal over your heart

Even death could never tear this love apart

I'll love you till I draw my very last breath

My forever, my always, my Bert.
