We were just kids when this story began
Growing up together, holding your hand
That handsome face and that infectious smile
Had me falling for you, baby, all the while
You put the work in, you grind every day
Giving your all in a beautiful way
When I hear you laugh, it still lights up the room
You're my childhood sweetheart, making love bloom
ChorusRobert, my husband, my rock and my soul
Thirty-eight years and we're still on a roll
My love grows much deeper with each passing day
I want to be closer than words can convey
Yeah, stronger and deeper, just you and me
The love of my life, my meant-to-be
Verse 2You turned twenty years old and got on one knee
Nineteen eighty-eight, you gave your promise to me
Then came the blessings, eighty-nine was our first
Ninety-one, ninety-four, our hearts could just burst
We built up a family, a house full of love
Now six precious grandkids are gifts from above
Through all of the seasons, the highs and the lows
The rhythm between us just continues to grow
BridgeYou're an extremely hard worker, but you always make time
To show me this mountain is one we can climb
I want us to pull in, to hold each other tight
To keep the spark glowing deep into the night
Let's draw a bit closer, let's strengthen the tie
My love for you, Robert, will never run dry
Final ChorusRobert, my husband, my rock and my soul
Thirty-eight years and we're still on a roll
My love grows much deeper with each passing day
I want to be closer than words can convey
Yeah, stronger and deeper, just you and me
My childhood sweetheart for eternity
