I Will Be True To The Promise I Have Made To You And To The One Who Gave You To Me

I just wanted to touch on the songs which I tagged in this blog.... in particularly the first two. They were part of our wedding and I found them especially meaningful. Both are from Steven Curtis Chapman, a Christian singer.

'We will dance' talks about a couple going through thick and thin together until 'they grow old and their steps grow weak and slow' ....while 'I will Be there' is exactly how I hope our marriage will be, to always be there no matter what happens.

No sun bursts and fireworks and grand notions of romantic love for me thank you! And who cares about Valentime's when its just a hyped up commerical event for flower shops and restaurants to dig into your pocket.

I just want a love and marriage that will stand the test of time, and grow deeper with each passing year. I love the songs because the lyrics are all about just that.. growing old together and going through thick and thin. Sure there will be ups and downs, and there will be more times when we'll be screaming our heads off at each other (lost count on the no. of times that happened!), but ultimately, it just come down to us, through the years, until we are old and grey and wrinkled.

Love You, Dear.

We Will Dance

I've watched the sunrise in your eyes

And I've seen the tears fall like the rain

You've seen me fight so brave and strong
You've held my hand when I'm afraid

We've watched the seasons come and go
We'll see them come and go again
But in winter's chill, or summer's breeze
One thing will not be changin

'We will dance
When the sun is shining
In the pouring rain
We'll spin and we'll sway

And we will dance
When the gentle breeze
Becomes a hurricane
The music will play
And I'll take your hand
And hold you close to me
And we will dance

Sometimes it's hard to hold you tight
Sometimes we feel so far apart
Sometimes we dance as one
And feel the beating of each others hearts

Some days the dance is slow and sweet
Some days we're bouncing off the walls
No matter how this world may turn
Our love will keep us from fallin'

And we will dance
When the sun is shining In the pouring rain
We'll spin and we'll sway
And we will dance

When the gentle breeze
Becomes a hurricane
The music will play
And I'll take your hand
And hold you close to me
And we will dance

The music will play
And I'll hold you close
And I won't let you go
Even when our steps
Grow weak and slow
Still I'll take your hand
And hold you close to me
And we, will dance

I Will Be There

Tomorrow morning if you wake up and the sun does not appear
I will be here
If in the dark, we lose sight of love
Hold my hand, and have no fear'
Cause I will be here

I will be here
When you feel like being quiet
When you need to speak your mind
I will listen And I will be here
When the laughter turns to cryin'
Through the winning, losing and trying
We'll be together
I will be here

Tomorrow morning, if you wake up
And the future is unclear
I will be here

Just as sure as seasons were made for change
Our lifetimes were made for these years
So I will be here

I will be here
And you can cry on my shoulder
When the mirror tells us we're older
I will hold you
And I will be here

To watch you grow in beauty
And tell you all the things you are to me
I will be here
I will be true to the promise I have made
To you and to the One who gave you to me

Tomorrow morning, if you wake up And the sun does not appear
I will be here Oh, I will be here.
