ANNIVERSARY SONG
Words and Music by Mary Cole and Greg Garrett.

O, how can you still love me,
Through the good years and the bad?
As I look at you, I clearly see
The best friend I ever had.
Years have passed in rainbows,
While tears have touched the sun.
But I know it's true, until I met you,
My life had not begun.
April robed our youth in green;
Autumn brought the rain.
But it still holds true, because I love you
I'd do it all again.
Summer sunshine turns to frost;
Winter brings the snow.
With you by my side, in the ev'ning tide,
I know our love will grow.
Yet how can you still love me
Through the good years and the bad?
As I look at you, I clearly see
The best friend I ever had.
O, how can you still love me
Through the good years and the bad?
As I look at you, I clearly see
The best friend I've ever had.
Years have passed in rainbows,
While tears have touched the sun.
But I know it's true, until I met you,
My life had not begun.
Yet how can you still love me,
Through the good years and the bad?
As I look at you, I clearly see
The truest love I ever had.
