Found on Taylor Street

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Fifty years ago this fall, A summer street, a rented hall, Jimmy drove me down the shore, Never guessed what lay in store. I stepped inside on Taylor Street, And found the eyes I'd learn to meet. [Chorus] Oh, the life we built together, Through the calm and stormy weather, Faithful heart and hands so true, A devoted love, me and you. Half a century, still we roam, You're my forever, you're my home. [Verse 2] Those hazel eyes still hold me now, The years have blessed us, showed us how To raise a son, three daughters strong, Eight grandkids where they all belong. From big Ukrainian family ties, To lifelong friends and Sunday skies. [Chorus] Oh, the life we built together, Through the calm and stormy weather, Faithful heart and hands so true, A devoted love, me and you. Half a century, still we roam, You're my forever, you're my home. [Bridge] They say you've got nine lives, my dear, Through fire and water, still you're here. God kept His hand on you each time, And Joe, I thank Him you're still mine. [Verse 3] We navigated Ireland's roads, Two hearts, one map, and all our loads, From Wildwood summers, salt and sun, To islands where the waters run. You'll tell the story, hold the room, My Joe, you always chase the gloom. [Chorus] Oh, the life we built together, Joe and Jan, we'll last forever, Faithful heart and hands so true, A devoted love, me and you. Fifty years, and still we roam, You're my forever, you're my home. [Outro] So here's to us, and all the grace, The love I see upon your face. Joe, my love, through all our days, I'll treasure you in all your ways.
