Bobby

Thirteen years old, sitting on that couch

In the living room on Main, trying to figure life out

We said we'd get together, it started as a joke

But the Lord was writing a story in the words we spoke

Through the seasons of growing and the tears we've cried

You've been the steady hand walking by my side

No weapon formed will prosper, for the Lord is by your side

He loves you so deeply, with His arms open wide

And just like our Father, my heart is yours to hold

A love that keeps on growing as the years unfold

After all this time, through the beautiful and gray

I look at you, my handsome man, and I choose you every day

We stayed together through the hard times, when the road got dark

With a jailhouse letter, you captured my whole heart

You asked me to be yours, and in twenty-thirteen

We stood before the altar and fulfilled the dream

You are wise, you are handy, with a creative soul

The attentive way you love me makes my spirit whole

No weapon formed will prosper, for the Lord is by your side

He loves you so deeply, with His arms open wide

And just like our Father, my heart is yours to hold

A love that keeps on growing as the years unfold

After all this time, through the beautiful and gray

I look at you, my handsome man, and I choose you every day

Four wonderful babies running round the floor

Watching you be an amazing dad just makes me love you more

But when the house finally settles and the daylight ends

It's the quiet moments with you that I cherish, my best friend

No weapon formed will prosper, for the Lord is by your side

He loves you so deeply, with His arms open wide

And just like our Father, my heart is yours to hold

A love that keeps on growing as the years unfold

After all this time, whatever comes our way

I look at you, my handsome man, and I choose you every day

Yes, Bobby, I choose you every day
