We Were Us, We Were We

With apologies in advance for the tears, this is a beautiful, yet perhaps heart-wrenching song about a woman who's lost her beloved husband of many years.

​While sad, we know this is part of our life in this world, and the song is meant as my gift to all those incredible souls who have created such a marriage. It is a celebration of love, and it is a song of hope.

I remember that day you told me
There was no one in your life
Who loved you so, and wouldn’t let go,
And you wanted me as your wife.

I walked down that aisle,
Gave you my hand,
Gave you my world,
And I made you my man.

For so many years
We were us,
We were we.
Whatever I saw
I knew you would see.
And we shared our life and our hearts.
And now you’re gone forever,
And forever we’ll be apart.

We laughed and we cried
Through all that we shared.
Through blessings and struggles
We knew that we cared.

We held our heads high,
The two of us proud.
And we walked our own pathway,
Never followed the crowd.

For so many years
We were us,
We were we.
Whatever I saw
I knew you would see.
And we shared our life and our hearts.
And now you’re gone forever,
And forever we’ll be apart.

Life’s a gift at times,
It’s rough at times,
But through all of this,
You were always mine.
Life would challenge us,
And lift us up,
And take us to the moon.
I was always your midnight,
And you were always my noon.

For so many years
We were us,
We were we.
Whatever I saw
I knew you would see.
And we shared our life and our hearts.
And now you’re gone forever,
And forever we’ll be apart.

But the truth of it my love
Is I know you’re looking down from above.
I know you’re here.
I have no fear.
And we’ll never be apart.
