Verse

Do you remember that night
so long ago,
I could never forget it,
oh, no

We were watching TV,
an old black and white movie
Sitting hand in hand
I looked into your eyes
the feeling was soo intense
Then it all made sense
I knew you were the man for me

Chorus

Now all these years have gone by
and many times we've made each other cry
But some how, our love has grown,
our love has grown, our love has grown
Some how our love has grown

I thank God that you're in my life
all these years I've been your wife
Once all these kids are on their own (have grown),
we'll have some time alone
and I'll say:

Verse

How fast these years,
they've come and gone,
I will never forget 'em
oh, no

At times its been like TV
or 'n old black and white movie
walking hand in hand,
I look into your eyes,
the feelings are still intense
it just makes sense

there's no other man for me


Chorus

I thank God, we'll have

more than this life,
in heaven I'll still be your wife
we'll take this love of ours home
Yes, I've always known,
that you, you are the man for me
