Mike Lehman

[Verse 1]
Nineteen and green in a Navy town,
Dam Neck breezes, the sun going down.
A Marine with a high and tight,
We were only friends back then, that's right.
I drove you and your buddies down the road,
Cars playing loud, but my heart already knowed.

[Chorus]
Two young hearts too scared to speak,
Blond and bold, but our chance felt weak.
Through all the years, through the miles between,
God knew the road, though we couldn't see —
He was writing love for you and me.

[Verse 2]
You gave me a field jacket, ammo cans of tin,
I carried them around the world I lived in.
Married others, went our separate ways,
But I thought of you through the longest days.
Old photographs brought your face to mind,
So I searched and searched till I heard you, Mike Lehman.

[Chorus]
Two young hearts, now grown and free,
Hazel eyes still looking for me.
Through all the years, through the miles between,
God knew the road, though we couldn't see —
He was writing love for you and me.

[Bridge]
"I have waited for you a long time and will follow you anywhere.
My life is complete with you in it.
Love you with all my heart and soul."

[Verse 3]
November came, your truck rolled in,
Sixty-two, and love found again.
Three sweet years, still hand in hand,
Two hearts beating, one holy plan.
Thank you, Mike, for the life we've grown —
Faith brought me home, I'm never alone.

[Chorus]
Two old hearts, still wild and free,
Devoted love, just you and me.
Through all the years, through the miles between,
God knew the road, though we couldn't see —
He was writing love for you and me.

[Outro]
My heart is full, this life is new,
Forever, Mike, I'll follow you.
