Three in Our Marriage cover art

Letras

[Verse 1]
Back when we were just kids
Borrowed car
Cheap perfume
Your dad watched the clock
Every time I brought you home
I was chasing every record
You were chasing every code
They shook their heads and whispered
"This won't go far down the road"

[Chorus]
But there were three in our marriage
You
Me
And a love above
Every promise that we carried
Held together by a stronger trust
They said it would never last
Look at all that grace has done
Fifty years
My heart still sings
For David
Sue
And God as one (oh yeah)

[Verse 2]
Late nights at the studio
You waiting in the hall
Coffee cups and prayer notes
Pinned up on the wall
Then came Ben and little Jo
Lego on the floor
We blinked and now their children
Fill every room and every door

[Chorus]
’Cause there are three in our marriage
You
Me
And a love above
Every valley that we walked through
Led us deeper into trust
They said it would never last
But the story’s just begun
Fifty years
I’m still in awe
Of David
Sue
And God as one

[Bridge]
We’ve held hands in the waiting rooms
Laughed till we cried in folding chairs
Every fight
Every quiet night
We found our way back through a prayer
If I could choose it all again
I’d choose that teenage girl once more
Stand beside you at the altar
Hear us say those words once more (hey)

[Chorus]
There are three in our marriage
You
Me
And a love above
Every wrinkle is a witness
To a faithful
Tender trust
They said it would never last
But our forever’s just begun
Fifty years and I still fall
For David
Sue
And God as one

[Outro]
Hand in hand at the table
Grandkids running through the room
Looking back I see the miracle
Every day I spent with you
They said it would never last
Smiling now at what we’ve done
Fifty years and still my prayer
Is David
Sue
And God as one
