Story Behind The Song

Written for artist's own wedding.

Song Description

A man sings of how he never knew what love was, until meeting the right girl, and passionately tells how they will live their lives together.

Lyrics

There was a time, not so far behind
When love was only written of
I couldn't say, what made love right
But here I stand, I've come out of the night
Let love begin.

When you talk to friends about her
When your sorrow grows without her
When you know there's no without her
When you know that it's for life
When a girl becomes a wife

You've argued, and you've ran
And still you understand
She'll be beside you, bride, retired
You'll walk together hand in hand

When you still wake up after a thousand miles
And you want your kids to have her smile
When you know there's no without her
When you know that it's for life
When a girl becomes a wife

She'll help you be the man
You'd always planned to be
Live out your dreams, you'll be a team
You'll walk together hand in hand

I never felt my heart
Now it melts when we're apart
But it's stronger than before
'Cause our love means so much more

And now it's you and I
We'll say I do and realize
Babe there's nowhere we can't go
We'll watch our little ones grow

When I'm about to take my final breath
And I know that even after death
We'll be together still, in a mystery-land
We'll walk together hand in hand

When you know that it's for life
When a girl becomes a wife
When you know that it's for life
When a girl becomes a wife
