You were sitting across from me in your pullover fleece
Your workplace emblem sat on the left side of your chest
The way you talk and listen always puts me at ease
As I looked into your blue eyes I thought about how you’re the best
We’ve been at this for 12 years now
I never regret that I gave you my vows
You know, some people just kind-of tolerate their spouse
But I still get butterflies when you wink at me and say, “I’ll see ya back at the house”
I’d meet you for lunch anywhere
And into those blue eyes I could forever stare
You’ve got me dreaming
About a little Jake or Virginia
Our lives are happening, babe
And I’m forever grateful that you came my way
We’ve been around the full circle
Age is just another hurdle
Abraham and Sarah
You’re always one to ask Why not?
And in an instant you rearrange all my plots
We’re surfers, we’re climbers, we’re sojourners
Here, hold my hand
Let’s run away together
Nah, let’s stay right here in familiar land – our hometown
We like to circle ‘round
Our workplaces and restaurants are still the same
There’s still some life left to claim
So, come here, my groom
Let’s make room
Forever I want to dine with you
The sun got low and I got cold
You pulled off your fleece, gave it to me
And I told you, “Sure, I love you but I also like you”
