about

A true story about my grandparents. They were married 68 years. "Yes, that's a long time," said my grandmother, "but not too long."

lyrics

Daddy walked those country miles to see his blue-eyed blond
The magic in her Texas smile had him spellbound
As autumn leaves were falling, heart-to-heart they pledged
To cherish one another for always

Mama and Daddy loved each other through the good and bad
When they started out together love was all they had
It wasn't always easy, this melding of two lives
But because of their commitment, love survives

Courtship days were spent in spinning dreams that seemed so real
But reality put wrinkles in that fabric of ideals
Many times they'd lay it down and dampen it with tears
Then with the warmth of love they'd iron it out

Mama and Daddy loved each other through the good and bad
When they started out together love was all they had
It wasn't always easy, this melding of two lives
But because of their commitment, love survives

Whatever comes I'll stand by you 'cause I have seen love work
It melts icy feelings and it cools off heated words
It warms the heart with tenderness and binds our hearts as one
This kind of love will always see us through

Our love will go the distance
Though the dusty road is long
May our children and their children sing this song ...

Mama and Daddy loved each other through the good and bad
When they started out together love was all they had
It wasn't always easy, this melding of two lives
But because of their commitment, love survives
