Terry

Take me back to Louis Grill down in Augusta, Arkansas

You were the most beautiful man that I ever saw

Thirty-four years old, I was just seventeen

With that Jerry curl afro, stepping out of a dream

Those baby blue eyes had my heart from "Hello"

June twenty-fifth, eighty-two, we let the whole world know

You took my hand, you took my soul

The sweetest love story that could ever unfold

Terry, my Honey Bear, my heart and my soul

You’ve loved me unselfish, you made my life whole

You’ve had me longer than my mama ever could

Through the bad times, the ups, the downs, and the good

I love you more, times most, times eternity

Your Puddin Pie forever, that’s what I’ll always be

A year and four months later, our little family grew

Our one and only baby girl, a reflection of you

Now you’re Poppy to the grandkids, three great-grandkids too

Look at this beautiful life that I built beside you

We’re not perfect, we had our flaws on the way

But we caught each other falling, day after day

You spoiled me with a love so deep and so rare

There’s nothing in this world that could ever compare

Terry, my Honey Bear, my heart and my soul

You’ve loved me unselfish, you made my life whole

You’ve had me longer than my mama ever could

Through the bad times, the ups, the downs, and the good

I love you more, times most, times eternity

Your Puddin Pie forever, that’s what I’ll always be

Forty-four years later, the hardest tear falls

Facing this cancer, our backs to the walls

I know that you're tired, you shouldn't have to suffer

I could live a thousand lives and never find another

It's okay to close your eyes, it's okay to leave me behind

I won't be far behind you, our spirits are entwined

Terry, my Honey Bear, my heart and my soul

You’ve loved me unselfish, you made my life whole

You’ve had me longer than my mama ever could

Through the bad times, the ups, the downs, and the good

I love you more, times most, times eternity

Thank you for everything, Terry, just wait up for me
