I’m Glad
Sometimes it seems like yesterday,
The long ago you came my way
And blessed me with two words: “I do,”
And changed my life eternally;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
I thought a bachelor’s life was smart,
Then you appeared and stole my heart,
A feat I thought no girl could do,
And you did it so easily;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
You showed me how love’s meant to be
By giving whole-heart willingly
To make us one instead of two
And bind us as a family;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
Since then, the time has hurried by;
You’ve made our years together fly;
When having fun, they always do;
With you life’s a romantic spree;
I’m glad I married you
I’m glad you married me.
You made a house, through loving care,
Into a home beyond compare
In which we’ve made our dreams come true
And all our hopes reality;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
I’ve shared with you through lots of years
A lot of smiles and sometimes tears,
But no sad times that made me blue
Or made me wish that I was free;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
I know at times I’ve been a pain,
But never once did you complain,
As many wives are known to do;
You’re not of that mentality;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
Some years were lean, lean as can be,
But through them all you stuck with me,
And together we saw them through;
True love defies adversity;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
You’ve made our years together grand
As through life we’ve strolled hand in hand,
And heart in heart the whole time through;
Life is that way when hearts agree;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
I thought, in early days of yore,
That I could never love you more,
A myth my heart proved quite untrue
With its unbound intensity;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
For choosing you I’ve no regrets;
Your love is as good as it gets,
Certainly more than I am due,
And from your side I’ll never flee;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
And one last thing before I end:
More than a wife, you’re my best friend,
A bosom buddy, tried and true,
My source of steadfast loyalty;
I’m glad I married you;
I’m glad you married me.
