We met and then the world just started spinning
Five short weeks and we were saying "I do"
Some folks might have questioned our beginning
But my heart knew the truth the second I found you
Now the calendar has turned a thousand pages
Forty-five years of building up this life
Through all the passing seasons and the stages
I've never been more proud to be your wife
ChorusOh, George, you're the anchor to my soul
With a giving heart that never seems to end
You pour your spirit out to make our family whole
To anyone in need, you are a friend
I can't imagine waking up without you by my side
You're my safe place, my husband, and my guide
Verse 2We've made a million memories on the ocean
Sailing out on cruises, just the two of us
Caught up in the bright and loud Mardi Gras commotion
Through every passing mile, you're who I trust
You've got a pair of hands that never rest
Always reaching out to someone in a bind
When I look at you I know that I am blessed
A gentler, kinder man I couldn't find
ChorusOh, George, you're the anchor to my soul
With a giving heart that never seems to end
You pour your spirit out to make our family whole
To anyone in need, you are a friend
I can't imagine waking up without you by my side
You're my safe place, my husband, and my guide
BridgeI watch you give so much to all the grandkids
You've always been the steady rock for all our kids
You leave a trail of kindness everywhere you go
And after all this time, I just need you to know
Final ChorusOh, George, you're the anchor to my soul
With a giving heart that never seems to end
You pour your spirit out to make our family whole
To anyone in need, you are a friend
Forty-five years, and I still need you by my side
My forever love, my husband, and my guide
