about
I began writing this song 5 years ago the night my now husband (then boyfriend) told me he that he loved me for the firs time. Now, 2 years into our marriage, I finished it. The song is meant to portray commitment in marriage as "where its at", and poke a little bit of fun toward the attitude of never wanting to settle down.
lyrics
Thank you for
being who
I wanted you to be
You came along
and I knew
that you were the one for me
Well some people say
That love fades away
And reds and pinks turn into greys
They say love is war
and life is short
So live it free, don’t give your heart
Well to them, well to them, well to them
I say no, no no no
Baby come hold me close and we’ll give them a show
Our love is alive, we’re steady as we go
We’re not looking back
So to them I say
Our eyes met
That frosty night
Soft by the winter weather
You kissed my lips
And held me tight
And I knew it was forever
Well some people say
That love fades away
And reds and pinks turn into greys
They say love is war and life is short
So live it free, don’t give your heart
Well to them, well to them, well to them
I say no, no no no
Baby come hold me close and we’ll give them a show
Our love is alive, we’re steady as we go
We’re not looking back --
So take me, I’m yours
Embrace me forever
To you, Love, I’m bound
To you, Love, I surrender
To you, Love, I surrender
To you, Love, I surrender
