Twenty-Five Years Back Home

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Two kids in the hallway, laughing at the world A friendship built to last, no matter what unfurled But life pulled us apart, some things we couldn't change Twenty-five long years, and still I knew your name [Chorus] Oh Kristin, we found our way back home Some love was always meant to stand alone Through all the storms, through all the wasted years Here we are, and heaven's finally clear [Verse 2] A message on a screen brought yesterday around Like no time had passed, that same old sacred sound I asked your brother John to give his blessing true Wishing your mom and dad could see me marry you [Chorus] Oh Kristin, we found our way back home Some love was always meant to stand alone Through all the storms, through all the wasted years Here we are, and heaven's finally clear [Bridge] At Smith Mountain Lake I got down on one knee By that same shining water, you said yes to me We're building something real, brick by brick, we're new Allbrooke and this family, all because of you [Verse 3] Now I'm here for Austin, Allie, Tori too Brantley, Konan, Gracie, I'd cross the world for you We carried the family through the darkest night And when I'm weak, you hold me, you're my guiding light [Chorus] Oh Kristin, we found our way back home Some love was always meant to stand alone Through all the storms, through all the wasted years Here we are, and heaven's finally clear [Outro] So happy anniversary, my friend, my wife A new beginning, a hopeful, healing life
