Some Years

V1
I was home for a family dinner
To ask Mom for some advice
You and Dad have been together for so long
How did you make it work and did you sacrifice
After the honeymoon ended,
That’s when the hard work began
We knew the grass wasn’t greener if we quit
We’d be jumping from the fire into the frying pan
Ch
Some days are better than others
Some weeks I carried carried the load
Some years it shifted on Dad’s shoulders
But we worked together to make this house a home
We had a lot of good times
And some pretty good laughs
Respect, love, trust and commitment were found
On the welcome mat
V2
Mom knew how to make a home, and dad knew how to provide
She was the captain of the household, and he was the master of outside
They learned to work as a couple to make their house a home.
They knew they were better together, than to be alone
CH
Sure they had their differences, but that didn’t drive them apart
It pulled them together like magnets found in their hearts
They found a way to help each other pursue their dreams
She said they became a pretty good team
