Time To Think

You made up your mind
About me quickly my dear
Now you’ve had time
To think about it a year

We are eternal soul-mates
Our lives suddenly locked
At a speed that left our friends
And proper relatives shocked

I love you so completely
I thought I’d lose myself
You showed by example
How love really felt

I made you commitments
When you became my wife
I promised to cherish you
For the rest of my life

Most times have been good
Sometimes have been rough
It has been exceedingly clear
You can take when it’s tough

We have fallen on hard times
Which couldn’t be foreseen
We have found out together
What our promises mean

In the trials that have passed
And the trials yet to be
You have not only stayed
You’ve been a pillar to me

How have we overcome troubles
Larger than either have seen
We have conquered them my dear
By focusing on what’s in between

And through all these seasons
That we could not predict
We’ve found by working together
Our marriage will stick

So I really don’t need to ask
Except to hear your sweet voice
If you knew what you know now
Would it have been the same choice
