[Intro]

[Intro] (Instrumental Solo) [Verse 1] Mau-keh shores where soft winds sway My-rah learned her gentle way 2013, behind the teller’s line Your smile hit me like a sign That’s when I met Too-poo-nah, bright as dawn’s first light Two hearts that’d rewrite my life that night [Verse 2] We counted notes and quiet dreams side by side Love grew slow, no need to hide 2016, we finally spoke the truth Stepped into a love that felt steady, felt new But 2017 called us deeper still When Mah-mah Irene needed us to will [Verse 3] Through the longest nights and silent tears You held your strength through all those years When she left us in June of ’22 I squeezed your hand, we pulled us through [Chorus] My-rah, my heart, my island flame From Mau-keh’s breeze to Auckland rain We walked through loss, we grew through change But every step, your love remained Now I stand here, ready to say I choose you forever, starting today [Verse 4] 2023, we packed our hopes and flew To Aotearoa skies, chasing something new Building a future as mother and wife 2024 brought blessings in life A promotion, a promise, a plan we’d tend A love that’d never reach its end [Verse 5] We came home to honour Mah-mah Irene’s name A trip stitched with memories, tender and tame 2025, Too-poo-nah grew tall and strong Off to intermediate, moving along You joined me again, side by side Two hearts walking with pride [Verse 6] January bloomed with a garden’s grace Auckland Domain held our moment of place I asked the question my heart always knew Tears in your eyes, you whispered “yes” too [Chorus] My-rah, my heart, my island flame From Mau-keh’s breeze to Auckland rain We walked through loss, we grew through change But every step, your love remained Now I stand here, ready to say I choose you forever, starting today [Bridge] For Mah-mah Irene watching from above For the girl you were, for the woman I love For Too-poo-nah grinning in the front row seat For every year that made us complete October 2027, our forever begins Two souls, one story, love always wins [Outro] My-rah, my heart, my island flame From Mau-keh’s breeze to Auckland rain Hand in hand, whatever may come You are my future, my forever one As we stand on our wedding day I vow to love you, always, in every way
