Barefoot in Our Paradise

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Sometimes the timing isn't right Two hearts just passing in the night But something kept that thread alive Through phone calls stretching into morning light Talking about the kids and dreams And everything that life could mean [Chorus] Love found a way back home Through the years it quietly grown Like waves that always find the shore It was worth the wait and so much more Two hearts that finally became one Our story had only just begun [Verse 2] The sand was warm beneath our feet Aruba skies made heaven complete We said I do where ocean meets the land Mike, I placed forever in your hand No shoes, no walls, just you and me Barefoot in our paradise so free [Chorus] Love found a way back home Through the years it quietly grown Like waves that always find the shore It was worth the wait and so much more Two hearts that finally became one Our story had only just begun [Bridge] You ran toward the flames when others ran away A legend in the station, brave in every way That same courageous heart you bring through our front door Mike, you give us all a reason to believe in more [Verse 3] A gentle soul so kind and true Our families intertwined because of you You guide us with that steady hand And support my crazy plans like no one can Twenty-five years since we first met Mike, you're the greatest blessing yet [Chorus] Love found a way back home Through the years it quietly grown Like waves that always find the shore It was worth the wait and so much more Two hearts that finally became one Our story had only just begun [Outro] We look up to you with all our hearts You've been the best part from the start
