Moonlight On The Lake

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a moon hanging low on the water And a breeze carrying whispers of time Some folks wait a lifetime to find it That feeling like everything's right But I knew on that second evening With the lake shining silver and bright [Chorus] Mary, you are the love of my life Best friend, my partner, my wife Every morning I wake and I know Forty-five years and it still starts to glow That moonlight that fell on us then I'd choose you all over again [Verse 2] You made every room feel like Sunday Gave our children the safest of ground Now the grandbabies run to your arms And your laughter's their favorite sound You carry this family with grace Like a garden you've tended year-round [Chorus] Mary, you are the love of my life Best friend, my partner, my wife Every morning I wake and I know Forty-five years and it still starts to glow That moonlight that fell on us then I'd choose you all over again [Bridge] I said I loved you beneath the full moon Some might say that was too soon But my heart knew exactly what it found [Verse 3] The best mama anyone's known And a gramma who lights up the room You're the joy and the center of all of it Every May I just count up the reasons And Mary, they bloom and they bloom [Chorus] Mary, you are the love of my life Best friend, my partner, my wife Every morning I wake and I know Forty-five years and it still starts to glow That moonlight that fell on us then I'd choose you all over again [Outro] Still that girl by the lake in the moonlight And I'm still falling for you tonight
