This anniversary song tells the beautiful story of a love that began with a simple, charming introduction at a retro bar in 1987 and blossomed into nearly four decades of unwavering devotion through military life, cross-country moves, unimaginable loss, and the joy of building a family together. It captures the kind of love that doesn't just survive the hard seasons but grows stronger because of them — two people who would do it all over again without changing a single thing. A heartfelt tribute to partnership, resilience, and the quiet, steady strength of choosing each other every single day.

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A Sunday night in eighty-seven A jukebox spinning oldies gold A broken phone across the tables So he walked over, brave and bold "How are you ladies doing tonight?" And something in his voice felt right [Chorus] Through every mile and every season Through every door we've opened wide You're my reason, you're my anchor My steady heart right by my side And I would do it all again Every single day, amen [Verse 2] A nurse, a man about to serve Thirteen months and we said "I do" Then he shipped out three weeks later But I held on 'cause I just knew He called and said Alaska, dear I packed my life and drove through fear [Chorus] Through every mile and every season Through every door we've opened wide You're my reason, you're my anchor My steady heart right by my side And I would do it all again Every single day, amen [Bridge] We lost Melanie way too soon The world went dark beneath the moon But Brad, you held us through the storm And kept this family safe and warm [Verse 3] Seventeen days on that long road north A boy, a girl, a life poured forth The broken building, the time apart Each goodbye tearing at your heart But Brad, when it was finally my turn You coached me on and watched me learn We built a home in Illinois You gave me strength, you gave me joy [Chorus] Through every mile and every season Through every door we've opened wide You're my reason, you're my anchor My steady heart right by my side And I would do it all again Every single day, amen [Outro] Thirty-eight Decembers, Brad, and counting Wouldn't change a thing, my love Wouldn't change a thing
