(Verse 1) It wasn’t a spark in a crowded bar But a fluorescent glow where we worked I saw your mind, how you held your ground While the rest of the world just lurked But when my world turned heavy and grey And the clouds pulled the light from the sky You didn’t just watch from a distance You stood there and helped me get by.

(Verse 2) We’ve stamped our passports and worn out our boots On trails where the wildflowers grow From the quiet woods to the jagged peaks With nowhere special to go I watched you breathe in the morning mist So steady, so fearless and free The same quiet strength that pulled me through When I was lost in a restless sea. (Bridge) They say you know a person by the roads they choose And the way they treat the ones they might lose But you chose the hard climb, you chose to stay And you’ve walked beside me every step of the way.

(Outro) There’s no one I’d rather walk with than you, my anchor... my dearest wife The greatest gift of my life.
