Seven years ago...

Scott and I re-met seven years ago today...its so hard to believe. These lyrics are taken from a card he gave to me on Valentine's last year...it means so much because I know how hard we work to have what we have...


Every time I look at you the world just melts away
All my troubles all my fears dissolve in your affections
You've seen me at my weakest but you take me as I am
And when I fall you offer me a softer place to land

You stay the course, you hold the line, you keep it all together
You're the one true thing I know I can believe in
You're all the things that I desire, You save me, You complete me
You're the one true thing I know I can believe

When I get mad so easy, you give me room to breathe
No matter what I say or do 'cause you're too good to fight about it
Even when I have to push just to see how far you'll go
You won't stoop down to battle, but you never turn to go

You stay the course, you hold the line, you keep it all together
You're the one true thing I know I can believe in
You're all the things that I desire, You save me, You complete me
You're the one true thing I know I can believe

And I promise you...

I will be the answer at the end of the line
I will be there for you while you take the time
In the burning of uncertainty I will be your solid ground
I will hold the balance if you can't look down

It if takes my whole life, I won't break, I won't bend
It'll all be worth it, worth it in the end
I can only tell you what I know, I need you in my life
When the stars have all gone out, You'll still be burning so bright

So...

You stay the course, you hold the line, you keep it all together
You're the one true thing I know I can believe in
You're all the things that I desire, You save me, You complete me
You're the one true thing I know I can believe
