Thirty-Eight Years of Morning

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Thirty-eight years of morning coffee steam, Of quiet dreams we chased and built as one. From young and wild to everything I need, You've been my shelter underneath the sun. Through every season, every high and low, You're still the only home I've ever known. [Chorus] Oh, love of my life, you're my steady ground, The sweetest melody I've ever found. Through all these years, you're my joy, my song, Tammy, in your arms is where I belong. [Verse 2] You work so hard, you never once complain, You carry more than anyone could see. Three kids we raised right through the sun and rain, Tyler, Jacob, Allison — our family tree. Two cats asleep, three dogs upon the floor, A house so full, and still I want you more. [Chorus] Oh, love of my life, you're my steady ground, The sweetest melody I've ever found. Through all these years, you're my joy, my song, Tammy, in your arms is where I belong. [Bridge] No fancy reason, no big holiday, I just felt love and had to find a way. To tell you all the things I don't say enough — You are my comfort, my strength, my luck. [Verse 3] So here's to nights we've yet to fall asleep, To grayer hair and hands that still will hold. The promises we made we chose to keep, A story worth its weight in country gold. Tammy, I'd choose you every single day, And every one that's coming down the way. [Chorus] Oh, love of my life, you're my steady ground, The sweetest melody I've ever found. Through all these years, you're my joy, my song, Tammy, in your arms is where I belong. [Outro] Just because, and always, evermore, You're the love I've been so grateful for.
