You've Always Had My Heart

When we first met so many years ago
I thought you were a bad boy and
                  not suitable to be my beau
Then years later we once more came face to face
And everything changed and
                  of love I had a bad case.
It seemed we meshed just perfectly
                  we didn’t want to be apart
I gave to you everything including the whole of my heart
For years we fought the bad guys
                  That wanted to see us fail
We pushed their stupid remarks aside
                  And told them to go to hell
Some many things that happened
                  Were just too much to bear
But for years we pushed them all aside
                  and lived the perfect life
No matter how much I tried, I was tired of being your wife
So divorce came along and we tore our family apart
Then we renewed our feelings
                  After time had somewhat eased our hearts
We remarried and lived happily again
                  And tried to rekindle our love
But it wasn’t happening for
                  No longer did we fit like hand and glove
I left very heavy-hearted to be with someone new
But it wasn’t meant to be for my heart stayed with you
I wouldn’t admit to even myself
That I belonged right by your side
And so once again we married
                And now we don’t have to try
It all comes so naturally now
                And we are now set down for life
For I know that all this time I was bound
                To fight through all the strife
My heart has been yours for forty years now
                Too long to ignore the fact
That I gave my all to you that December day
                With you, nothing do I lack.
