Our Base Is Me and You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] First date, I came home that night Told my momma I'd found Mr. Right The way you smiled, the way you'd tease Brought my whole heart right to its knees We flirted wild, we danced so true From the start, baby, I knew it was you [Chorus] You make my heart smile, you always have Through every season, the good and the bad With your country humor and your gentle way You're the answer to every prayer I prayed A love like ours don't come around twice You're my forever, my whole life [Verse 2] That first Christmas, God gave me gold He gave me you, my hand to hold A ring, a promise, a life to build Every dream I had got filled Catcher's mitt and a fishing line Sweetest man this world could find [Chorus] You make my heart smile, you always have Through every season, the good and the bad With your country humor and your gentle way You're the answer to every prayer I prayed A love like ours don't come around twice You're my forever, my whole life [Bridge] Now the road's grown steep, but we walk it strong Faith and laughter carry us along Dick, you're brave in every storm we face Surrounded by family, held by grace [Verse 3] To our kids you're the working man To the grandkids, Pop, with the steady hand You teach them courage, you teach them love Kindness pouring from above Whatever comes, we'll see it through 'Cause our base is me and you [Chorus] You make my heart smile, you always have Through every season, the good and the bad Happy birthday, my Dick, my guiding light You're the best part of every night [Outro] Never met a stranger, always met with love Dick, you're the blessing I'm still dreaming of
