Kevin

July the ninth of twenty-twenty, a spark across the screen

Two days of talking non-stop, the brightest light I'd seen

Two days later we were one, a sudden rush of fate

I never met a man like you, I knew I couldn't wait

You brought a humble honesty, an intelligent, creative soul

You made me laugh until I cried, and made my spirit whole

Oh, Kevin, you've got a heart of grit and gold

The most courageous, beautiful story ever told

My protector and my shield, my strength when I am weak

The patient, wise, and loyal love that I was born to seek

I love the man you used to be, the man you are today

And who you will become as we walk along this way

From screaming loud in haunted houses, riding roller coasters high

To playing all our favorite games as the midnight hours fly

We traded all our passions, we tried a hundred brand new things

And weathered every single storm that this crazy lifetime brings

I've never had so much damn fun, I've never smiled so wide

With my adorable, hilarious husband by my side

Oh, Kevin, you've got a heart of grit and gold

The most courageous, beautiful story ever told

My protector and my shield, my strength when I am weak

The patient, wise, and loyal love that I was born to seek

I love the man you used to be, the man you are today

And who you will become as we walk along this way

We did a lot of growing up, we made it through the night

I watched you fight and just survive, stepping back into the light

The Lord's our light and our salvation, the greatest love we've known

Like laying down a life for friends, that's the courage you have shown

You laid it on the line for us, a love so fierce and deep

A promise for eternity that I will always keep

You've helped me in a million ways I can't begin to list

Through every heavy, hard time, you're the reason we persist

I cannot wait to see the future, watch our marriage bloom

Chasing away the shadows, and clearing out the gloom

Your grit is unbelievable, your spirit stands so tall

I'm so glad I have you forever, standing through it all

Oh, Kevin, you've got a heart of grit and gold

The most courageous, beautiful story ever told

My protector and my shield, my strength when I am weak

The patient, wise, and loyal love that I was born to seek

I love the man you used to be, the man you are today

And who you will become as we walk along this way
