She walked down the aisle in her satin and veil
My heart was beating like an old church bell
The preacher man asked her she said I do
My knees went week and I said I do too
The world stood still I could see my life
I looked into her eyes
When we were just married
We wished upon a star
It was painted on the window in the back of my car
We had no worries we had no doubts
We would fold like an umbrella when the lights went out
Never been a love so true just married to you
Now the rain will fall and the wind will blow
Dreams will come and the dreams they go
Living on dreams and the heavenly ground ???
The whole world can worry and the tides that bind
I'm feeling the chill of the early fall
I see the picture on the wall
Of when we were just married
We held on tight thinking some how everything would be allright
We had no worries we had no land
We would wake in the morning do the best we can
Remember when love was new just married to you
Now I close my eyes in the deep dark past
Hold me close and we'll lay in the grass
Proving nothing could ever ever tear us apart
I found the girl with one true heart
They say everything changes
With no one to blame
The more thing change the more I stay the same
And everything about me she loved before
Is the same damn thing she can't stand no more
When my friends ask how I am today
I just smile and say
It's just like we were married
We held on tight
Turn up the flame and turn down the light
Living on nothing living on love
COunting our blessing in the stars above
Never been a love so true just married to you
Thats all we are
Sweet memories inside my heart
We've been thru heaven and we've been thru hell
Ain't been nowhere but it's just as well
Remember when love was new just married to you
