lyrics

In the tree light shines the sun
You’ll always be my only one
Autumn breeze, I see your eyes
Shining blue like mountain skies

The kids are playing in the yard
Don’t know how we got this far
Sounds of laughter fill the air
Sounds to me like sweetest prayer

Thanks for putting up with me
As I put up with you
Lasting love’s a finer thing
And we got lots to do

Buy a house, the countryside
Where we can can share the golden quiet
Let the kids go runnin’ wild
And we can have the porch a while

I can have a rockin’ chair
And watch their shiny golden hair
Let the Springtime fill my nose
Makes me sneeze, but so it goes

Thanks for putting up with me
As I put up with you
Lasting love’s a finer thing
And we got lots to do

Time, it goes so wicked fast
Now’s the present, now it’s past
Nothing like my love for you
Lizzie, Kira, and Julie too

Thanks for putting up with me
As I put up with you
Lasting love’s a finer thing
And we got lots to do

Gratitude, it’s what I’ve got
Rich in love, I’ve got a lot
Sweetest children, lovely wife
Gotta admit it’s a pretty good life
