"Yes Spinner, I’ll marry you." She says through her tears. I’m sure I look like a big idiot with the huge smile on my face but I don’t care, she said yes. My baby girl is gonna be my wife. I pick her up and kiss her senseless.

"God I am so lucky" I tell her.

"I think we both are" She says.

Life doesn’t get any better than this.

I said, she was seven and I was nine
I looked at her like the stars that shined
In the sky, the pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
Growing up and falling in love and our mamas smiled
And rolled their eyes and said oh my my my

Take me back to the house in the backyard tree
Said I’d beat you up, you were smaller than me
I never did, I never did
Take me back when our world was one block wide
You dared me to kiss you and ran when I tried
Just two kids, you and I…

Oh my my my my

Well, you were sixteen when suddenly
you weren’t that little girl I used to see
But your eyes still shined like pretty lights
And our daddies used to joke about the two of us
They never believed we’d really fall in love
And our mamas smiled and rolled their eyes
And said oh my my my…

Take me back to the creek beds we turned up
Two A.M. riding in my truck and all I need is you next to me
Take me back to the time we had our very first fight
The slamming of doors instead of kissing goodnight
I stayed outside till the morning light
Oh my my my my

A few years had gone and come around
We were sitting at our favorite spot in town
And you looked at me, I got down on one knee

Take me back to the time when we walked down the aisle
Our whole town came and our mamas cried
You said I do and I did too
Take me home where we met so many years before
We’ll rock our babies on that very front porch
After all this time, you and I

you’ll be eighty-seven; I’ll be eighty-nine
I’ll still look at you like the stars that shine
In the sky, oh my my my…
