Walk Beside Me, Dean

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some love stories start with fire Some begin with just a spark Ours started with a wink online And words that lit up the dark Message after message, something real came through Late night phone calls, neither wanting to hang up on you [Chorus] Walk beside me, not ahead, not behind Hand in hand through the rain and the shine I chose you to be my last love, my last prayer Through every storm, I'll still be standing there [Verse 2] Dean, when you got down on one knee My heart was somewhere past the moon Every vow I spoke that day Was a promise, not just a tune You stepped in for my kids like they were your own Gave them something their real father never had shown [Chorus] Walk beside me, not ahead, not behind Hand in hand through the rain and the shine I chose you to be my last love, my last prayer Through every storm, I'll still be standing there [Bridge] This last year tried to break what we'd built You wandered where the grass looked green But Dean, I loved you then, I love you now And every broken place between [Verse 3] Forgiveness isn't just a word I say It's the ground I'm planting seeds upon The grandkids laughing in the yard Remind me what we're building on So Dean, if you're still wondering where my heart remains It's right here where it's always been, calling out your name [Chorus] Walk beside me, not ahead, not behind Hand in hand through the rain and the shine I chose you to be my last love, my last prayer Through every storm, I'll still be standing there [Outro] I loved you then, I love you now And I will love you anyhow
