My Forever

Verse 1

Met you back in ’93, summer heat and borrowed time

You were sixteen, I was twenty two, young hearts crossing lines

Small town nights, big old dreams, didn’t know what love would cost

But I knew right then, holding your hand, I never wanted lost

Verse 2

’97 came with vows and rings, promises said slow

Life moved fast, years rolled on, like a wide open road

Two boys grew beneath our roof, Seth and Elias strong

Watched them learn what love looks like, just by watching us hold on

Chorus

You’re my always, you’re my home

Through the highs and the lows

We bent but never broke, no matter how hard it got

You’re the calm in my storm, the truth I’ve always known

Yeah, Charlie, you’re my forever, my heart, my love, my song

Verse 3

You wore scrubs in busy offices, spine charts and clinic plans

Running days with iron focus, keeping order with your stand

I wore a badge, walked harder roads, drawing mine out in the street

Different jobs, same backbone, same strength when we would meet

Chorus

You’re my always, you’re my home

Through the highs and the lows

We bent but never broke, no matter how hard it got

You’re the calm in my storm, the truth I’ve always known

Yeah, Charlie, you’re my forever, my heart, my love, my song

Bridge

Years leave lines upon our faces, silver starts to show

But every laugh still sounds the same, like it did long ago

If I had one more lifetime, I’d still choose you again

Same girl, same love, right back where it began

Final Chorus

You’re my always, you’re my home

Still standing, still strong

Built a life on faith and love and never let it go

When the lights all fade and the long days are gone

It’ll still be me and you, Charlie, proving love was right all along

Outro

From ’93 to forever, baby, that’s our song
