Seven Days to Forever

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some roads don't start where you expect, Some second chances come unchecked, A friend said, help her study, please, I came with books and shaky knees, Your little girl peeked round the door, And I was yours forevermore. [Chorus] Diana, your eyes still sparkle when you smile, You keep my feet on steady ground, When I go chasing rainbows for a while, You're the anchor that I found, Strongest woman I have known, My best friend, my way back home. [Verse 2] We'd both been down that road before, A couple of retreads, nothing more, But seven days on mountain trails, Past granite walls and waterfalls, In Yosemite Valley, on one knee, I asked you to share your life with me. [Chorus] Diana, your eyes still sparkle when you smile, You keep my feet on steady ground, When I go chasing rainbows for a while, You're the anchor that I found, Strongest woman I have known, My best friend, my way back home. [Bridge] Daughters Dawn and Kate, The greatest gift of fate, You raised them strong, you held us near, Our family's love grew year by year. [Verse 3] Forty-seven years have passed, Our hair turned silver, time moved fast, The steps are slower than before, But I love you even more, Diana, there's a long road still, I'll walk it with you, always will. [Chorus] Diana, your eyes still sparkle when you smile, You keep my feet on steady ground, When I go chasing rainbows for a while, You're the anchor that I found, Through every season we have grown, My best friend, my way back home. [Outro] Just a study date, a little door, Love at first sight, still burning true, I'd walk every mile again with you.
