She lived down the street, they shared the same school
Their life intertwined like two balls of wool
And love was the word that never saw them rest
On this family tree they found themselves a nest
She grew up with him right into their teens
Got his first job and entered her dreams
Their love was on fire, each word on a flame
On this family tree they carved out one name
Oh, a lifetime of love
In each others hearts
She walked through his life
Along the same path
They married and moved into a new house
Their roots were put down and friends came around
This peaceful retreat became full of life
On their family tree a family sleep tonight
'Cause a lifetime of love
In each others hearts
She walked through his life
Along the same path
This peaceful retreat became full of life
On their family tree a family sleep tonight
Oh, a lifetime of love
In each others hearts
She walked through his life
Along the same path
Oh, a lifetime of love
In each others hearts
She walked through his life
Along the same path
