It took this long

We started out our lovely journey without each other’s company
We met at a given time, yes during our youthful prime
I said “be patient but walk in line, and I promise soon you’ll be forever mine
You said “to you the decision is fine, even if how long the years is just nine
To seal the oath we used a sign and after which we’ll wine and dine
It’s success in standing the test of time we’ll prove it’s really divine
So fast time went by and in the end it was never a lie
That true love endures and even in the dark it can shine
It took this long
As said in this song
We were not wrong
Love is ever young
We endured through thorns and thistles
Jeering, scorns and whistles
Fresh and smooth skins with no wrinkles
Great and small moves, leaps and twinkles
Gentle sure strides, slow and steady
We were against all odds and ever ready
Like birds of a feather in the sky soaring high
Until we achieve our goal we’ll still fly
Even through the gloomiest gloom and dark nights
We’ll tread through scary paths and bear frightful sights
We don’t totter because we know what is wrong and right
Going left and right determined to live through our plight
Failure would have been ours if we used just our might
Mighty glad God was there for us to defend and also fight
