The Only One I Saw

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Back in English class, just a boy with a plan Took a year just to get her number in my hand Another year of waiting before she took a chance But something in those brown eyes whispered this could be romance One look at that gorgeous smile and I was already gone [Chorus] Sonia, you're my strength, my rock, my joy More than this ol' heart could ever dream Through every storm we've weathered side by side You're the reason I believe In a love that's built to last forever [Verse 2] Three hundred people standing in that room But the only face I saw was you walking through We built a world with three kids running 'round And an angel up in heaven watching down Every struggle pulled us closer, every tear just proved us true [Chorus] Sonia, you're my strength, my rock, my joy More than this ol' heart could ever dream Through every storm we've weathered side by side You're the reason I believe In a love that's built to last forever [Bridge] Thirty-one years of holding on Twenty-six since we said I do Every chapter, every page Girl, I'd write them all with you [Verse 3] Our family gathered close on silver nights Candles glowing warm, the whole world feeling right I looked across the room into those eyes Same brown hair, same smile that makes time fly Our getaways, our long and quiet drives Sonia, you're the very best of my life [Chorus] Sonia, you're my strength, my rock, my joy More than this ol' heart could ever dream Through every storm we've weathered side by side You're the reason I believe In a love that's built to last forever [Outro] From that English class to forever Girl, my heart is always yours Sonia, my heart is always yours
