Another Year



So many 25th's of December
Just as many 4th of July's
And we're still holding it together
It only comes down to you and I




I know that you can still remember
Things we said right from the start
When we said that this could be special
I'm keeping those words deep down in my heart




Another year has gone by
And I'm still the one by your side
After everything that's gone by
There's still no one saying goodbye
Though another year has gone by



I never been much for occasions
But you never let another birthday go by
Without announcing how much you love me
But the truth was always there
Right there in your eyes




And we're still holding hands when we're walking
Acting like we've only just met
But how can that be - when there's so much history
I guess that's how true lovers can get



Another year has gone by
And I'm still the one by your side
After everything that's gone by
There's still no one saying goodbye
Though another year has gone by

A song by Celine Dion that hits a chord with me in a special way at the end of this year . ..

Loved seeing all your pictures, especially that 2nd one in the hat and his wide lapels! Takes me back! You have aged beautifully and I think your spirit has, too, and that makes all the difference, doesn't it?

What a lovely walk through the seasons of your life together. A good marriage is never to be taken for granted. You and H have made your relationship with each other a top priority and the result is lifelong love and friendship.
