I remember in Kindergarten
You were always there to play with me
We shared our toys and we shared our snacks
If someone pushed me then you pushed them back
We were seven playing in the park
We stayed up until after dark
You swore nothing could ever tear us apart
Best friends in mind and heart
Chorus
You looked at me
I looked at you
Deep down I know that it was true
The first time you whispered I love you
Seventh grade we were still best friends
Just like we were way back then
I saw things changing from a mile away
You said we would be together soon someday
Freshman year and you held me close
We held hands and you made a toast
To being friends and being more than that
You kissed me and I kissed you back
Chorus
When we graduated we were still in love
Together we fit like a glove
Off to college still arm in arm
You promised me no one would do me harm
You took me to a pretty park in spring
You got on your knees and gave me a ring
I know I love you and know you love me
And I was wondering would you marry me please
Chorus
Our wedding day we said our I dos
I still remember the day I fell for you
We cut the cake and took our first bites
Im still amazed we never got in a fight
Chorus
Four kids later we got into the car
We saw a man who spent too long at the bar
He started swerving I began to pray
Dear Lord please dont let it end this way
Several hours in the hospital room
I cried all night saying the end came too soon
I took your hand and held it one last time
You looked at me and said youll always be mine
Chorus
I started crying as your hand slipped from mine
Youll live forever in the land with no time
I know youll be waiting at those pearly gates
This is a time that Ill just have to wait
