Since That First Dance

Valina I met you back when we were sixteen

I asked you to a teen dance and you said you'd go with me

Since that first day you stayed right here by my side

Through every turn of life you've been my steady guide

I joined the navy to build a future we could share

A couple years later you came and let me there

We married in ninety one and kept moving coast to coast

Through every change we faced I leaned on you the most

You're my rock for life my best friend through it all

You stood with me in the highs and when lows would call

The boys and our granddaughter light up your loving heart

Valena through the years you never drifted far

I gave thirty two years then left that work behind

You stayed with me through anxious days and brought me peace of mind

We've always cared for our two sons in every way

At thirty one and twenty two they're still your joy today

And our granddaughter seven now means so much to you

I see that in the love you show and all you say do

We've been to nashville three times and we still love that place

A summer at the cottage waits with family and your grace

You're my rock for life my best friend through it all

You stood with me in the highs and when lows would call

The boys and our granddaughter light up your loving heart

Valena through the years you never drifted far
