[ You Are The Center Red Rose In My Bouquet ]
[ I’ve Been In Love With You Ever Since That One Day ]

[ I Woke Up That Morning Well Rested ]
[ I Didn’t Realize How I Was About To Be Tested ]

[ In My Defense ]
[ I Was Walking The Fence ]

[ There I Was Getting To Know You As A Friend ]
[ But When I Woke Up ]
[ I Wondered { WAS ALL OF THIS PRETEND? } ]

[ It Began When You Became The Only One I Could
Think Of ]
[ My Question Was { AM I IN LOVE? } ]

[ You Were My Friend & From Past Experience I Knew That
Never Worked Out ]
[ You Were My Friend, So This Is Something That I Needed To Really
Think About ]

[ Was This Just Happenstance ]
[ When There Must Be @ Least 50 Apartment Complexes
In Salem ]
[ & You Picked The One I Lived In, By Chance ]

[ Then We Walked ]
[ & We Talked ]

[ I Asked { ARE WE READING FROM THE SAME BOOK? } ]
[ { WOULD YOU LIKE TO GIVE THIS A LOOK? } ]

[ When You Said { SURE } ]
[ I Knew You Were Her ]

[ Ever Since That Night ]
[ You Have Been My Guiding Light ]

[ When You Said You Were In ]
[ I Chalked Up The Win ]

[ So Now After A Tad Bit More Than 8,950 Days & Nights ]
[ We Have Survived Some Dark Days ]
[ & Celebrated 100’s Of Times Under Some Very Bright Lights ]

[ Through The Darkest Of Times ]
[ You Were Always My Guilding Light ]
[ That’s How I’m Able To Write All Of These Rhymes ]

[ That One Day When I Asked You To Be My Wife ]
[ I Was Also Asking You, If I Could Be Your Husband ]
[ For The Rest Of Your Life ]

[ When It Comes To Marriage There Are Only A Few ]
[ Who Last Past Year 22 ]

[ But Here We Are Going On Year 25 ]
[ & Our Marriage Is Still Very Much Alive ]

[ We Take It Day By Day, Year By Year ]
[ We Walk Hand In Hand ]
[ When We Stare Down A Fear ]

[ We Have Lots Of Fun ]
[ Because We Both Signed Up ]
[ For The Long Run ]

[ That Is Just What We Do ]
[ There Is No Us ]
[ Without You, Too ]
