[Verse 1]
We were born in the very same year,
Grew through the same songs, our country's fears.
We remember it all, the world as it turned,
The lessons we lived, the wisdom we earned.
Forty-three years since we first said hello,
Two hearts that were destined to grow.

[Chorus]
Oh, we found something rare and true,
Just an old sweet love, me and you.
Forty years and still my everything,
More than a promise, more than a ring.
Through the seasons we sway and we stay,
My darling George, forever and a day.

[Verse 2]
Ryan and Lea, and Lauren too,
Leighton and Kaila, our family grew.
Isaac and Georgie, the light of our days,
Woven together in a hundred sweet ways.
From Bend's quiet streets to Sun Valley's snow,
Our story still learning to glow.

[Chorus]
Oh, we found something rare and true,
Just an old sweet love, me and you.
Forty years and still my everything,
More than a promise, more than a ring.
Through the seasons we sway and we stay,
My darling George, forever and a day.

[Bridge]
By Ocho Cascadas, warm ocean air,
Just us together, no worry, no care.
Give us ten more years, or more if we're blessed,
More mornings, more music, more rest.
I'd choose you again, and again, and again,
My love, my home, my dearest friend.

[Verse 3]
So here's to the homes and the shores we have known,
The children, the grandkids, this life fully grown.
No one could match how you know all of me,
Closely knit hearts, it was meant to be.
Raise up a glass, let's celebrate long,
For Paula and George, still singing our song.

[Outro]
Two hearts of one year, forever entwined,
The luckiest love I could find.
