(Verse 1)
I was just a girl in a little white dress,
Didn’t know back then I’d been given the best.
He had that wild, boyish grin,
But even then, I saw the man within.
Years passed by, time pulled us apart,
But love has a way of knowing the heart.
Fifteen and waiting by the phone,
Somehow, I always knew he’d come back home.
(Verse 2)
Twenty-one and standing in front of a crowd,
I said, “I do” and he said it proud.
No riches, no mansion, just a hand to hold,
And a promise we’d make this life our own.
Then came the sleepless nights, babies in our arms,
Diapers and deadlines, but he never lost his charm.
He’d walk in tired, but still pull me close,
Said, “You’re my Angel, don’t you ever let go.”
(Chorus – One-time, heartfelt)
He’s the man who carries more than his share,
Who works all day, then still shows he cares.
He don’t ask for much, don’t need the stage,
Just a quiet love that never fades.
And I thank God every night,
For the man beside me.
(Verse 3)
I see him now, rocking our son,
Soft whispers of “I love you, little one.”
Same strong hands, same steady heart,
Still holding us together, like he did from the start.
Life ain’t easy, and love takes its toll,
But through it all, he’s made us whole.
Not just a husband, not just a dad,
He’s the greatest gift I’ve ever had.
(Outro – Soft, reflective)
So when the years have turned us gray,
And our babies have all moved away,
I’ll still be reaching for his hand,
Still be proud to call him my man.
And I’ll thank God every night,
For the man beside me.
