Lightning Struck in Thirty Days

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some folks say that love takes time Like a slow and steady climb But I learned how the sky can turn And light a fire that'll always burn The night we met, that lightning hit And neither one of us got over it [Chorus] Robin, you've got a heart of gold Warmer than the stories told You'd fix this whole wide world if you could And Lord knows, darlin', you'd do it good Forty-two years you've stood by me God sent you, and I'm grateful as can be [Verse 2] Thirty days was all it took One long look and I was hooked Didn't need a year to know Just a ring and a place to go Folks said we were moving fast But some things, darlin', are built to last [Chorus] Robin, you've got a heart of gold Warmer than the stories told You'd fix this whole wide world if you could And Lord knows, darlin', you'd do it good Forty-two years you've stood by me God sent you, and I'm grateful as can be [Bridge] When the road got rough and the nights ran long You were the steady in my song When I stumbled, you were there You were the answer to my prayer [Verse 3] Now the years have touched your hair But that lightning's still right there I thank the good Lord every day For the girl who came my way I'd chase that lightning back again And say I do in thirty days, amen [Chorus] Robin, you've got a heart of gold Warmer than the stories told You'd fix this whole wide world if you could And Lord knows, darlin', you'd do it good Forty-two years and you're still with me God sent you, and I'm grateful as can be [Outro] Forty-two years and counting still I always have and I always will Thank you, Lord, for sending her to me
