Summer of Eighty-Four

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Back in the summer of eighty-four, I found a love worth living for. Two hearts and a simple vow, Look how far we've traveled now. Through every season, rain or shine, God has been so good and kind. [Chorus] Oh Wanda, you're my peace, my song, The steady place where I belong. Faith and love that never end, My sweetheart and my dearest friend. Through all the years, you carried me, You're every joy I'll ever need. [Verse 2] Forty-two years, and here we stand, Still holding on, still hand in hand. You raised our children strong and true, They learned their kindness all from you. A mother's heart, a grandma's grace, There's heaven shining in your face. [Chorus] Oh Wanda, you're my peace, my song, The steady place where I belong. Faith and love that never end, My sweetheart and my dearest friend. Through all the years, you carried me, You're every joy I'll ever need. [Bridge] Grandchildren gather 'round your knee, Great-grandbabies laughing free. Comfort flows from all you give, You taught us how to love and live. [Verse 3] No special reason, just because, I want to thank you for your love. For every prayer you whispered low, For all the ways you helped me grow. When morning comes, I still can see The blessing that you've been to me. [Chorus] Oh Wanda, you're my peace, my song, The steady place where I belong. Faith and love that never end, My sweetheart and my dearest friend. Through all the years, you carried me, You're every joy I'll ever need. [Outro] So here's my heart, forever true, There's nobody I'd rather love than you. My Wanda, still my song.
