Verse 1
Twenty years ago at the bowling lane lights,
Bronze Valley shining on a Friday night,
I was there with friends, laughing away,
Never knew my life would change that day.
You saw me first, but you had to wait your turn,
Funny how some stories slowly burn,
Then you walked into the credit union one day,
Said, “I’ve seen you before,” and I smiled and looked away.
But destiny was patient, it knew what to do,
And before I knew it, my road led to you.
Pre-Chorus
Through every season, every rise and fall,
You’ve been the steady hand through it all.
Chorus
It’s more than the miles, more than the places,
More than the pictures and all of the faces.
London lights and Paris skies,
Rome at sunset, watching time fly.
It’s not what you gave me, it’s who you’ve always been,
A faithful heart, a trusted friend.
The greatest gift wasn’t what we could see,
It was the love, respect, and memories.
Oh Fergy, you’re loved more than you’ll ever know,
That’s the truth I’ve carried everywhere we go.
Verse 2
We’ve crossed the oceans and we’ve crossed the years,
Shared our laughter and survived our tears.
Spain and Portugal, Istanbul nights,
Japan mornings and Panama sights.
Dominican beaches, Jamaica sun,
Every adventure, every road we’ve run.
But the greatest journey wasn’t far away,
It was building a life day by day.
Drew and Dino grew into men,
Watching them find their own way again.
Makes me proud when I look and see,
The good men they’ve grown up to be.
Now Miles and Wes bring smiles anew,
Two little blessings that look up to you.
And the family tree keeps growing strong,
With your love at the roots all along.
Verse 3
You’ve taught me baseball, football too,
Soccer and playoffs and what teams to root for with you.
Half the time I’d ask, “Now what was that play?”
And you’d patiently explain it anyway.
We’ve been to concerts, singing every song,
Acting like teenagers all night long.
Dancing off beat, laughing out loud,
Not caring one bit about the crowd.
And every time you start that grin,
I know exactly what’s coming again.
“Pimpalicious!” you proudly say,
And somehow it still makes me laugh today.
Fergalicious, that’s what you’ll always be,
The life of the party and the MVP.
Twenty years later and it’s still true,
Nobody makes me laugh quite like you.
Pre-Chorus
You’ve taught me lessons I still hold today,
The kind that never fade away.
Chorus
It’s more than the miles, more than the places,
More than the pictures and all of the faces.
The memories shine, but that’s not why,
You’ll always be the reason I smile.
It’s not the trips or the things we’ve done,
It’s the kindness you’ve shown everyone.
The greatest treasure I can see,
Is the man you’ve always been to me.
Bridge
God puts people in your life for a reason,
Some for a moment, some for a season.
But every once in a while He sends someone true,
A blessing wrapped in the shape of you.
The birthdays, the laughter, the games we share,
The way you’ve always shown you care.
