(Verse 1)
First time I saw her ‘cross that old grocery aisle,
High school days, stockin’ shelves with a teenage smile.
Prettiest thing in faded jeans and a ponytail,
We danced ‘round the backroom, hearts settin’ sail.
But college called me north to Ohio’s cold gray,
Left her behind, thinkin’ we’d find our way.
(Chorus)
Twenty-five years of wrong turns and goodbyes,
Raisin’ families, chasin’ dreams under different skies.
We made our mistakes, but they carved out our souls,
Now the timin’s right, and love’s takin’ control.
Married under that Florida sky so bright,
Makin’ up for lost time, holdin’ on tight.
(Verse 2)
Life pulled us apart like a river runnin’ wild,
In and out of touch, like a long-lost child.
She built her world, I chased mine through the rain,
Kids and heartaches, learnin’ from the pain.
But fate kept whisperin’, “Boy, don’t let her go,”
After all them miles, we found our way home.
(Bridge)
We ain’t the kids we were, but darlin’, that’s just fine,
Those years made us stronger, like aged red wine.
No more wonderin’ what if, no more nights alone,
Hand in hand forever, in this love we’ve grown.
(Chorus - Outro)
Twenty-five years of wrong turns and goodbyes,
Raisin’ families, chasin’ dreams under different skies.
We made our mistakes, but they carved out our souls,
Now the timin’s right, and love’s takin’ control.
Married under that Florida sky so bright,
Makin’ up for lost time… yeah, we’re makin’ it right.
