Hot day in july, nineteen eighty-nine Ninety degrees standing in the shade You were dressed up all in white walking down the aisle Holding on tight to your daddy's arm I looked into your eyes And i saw love shine I swore to be your man, you swore to be my girl With a blessing and a promise we headed out into the world Hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder Together we stand darling in this life Nobody leads and nobody follows You and me walk it side by side Ten years come and gone, this road we've been on Has taken us through many twists and turns The changes we've faced have tested our faith But we stood strong darling come what may Now there've been some times one's fallen behind I waited for you, girl you waited for me We each other we found all the stength In this world that we need Hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder Together we stand darling in this life Nobody leads and nobody follows You and me walk it side by side Lying here tonight holding you close I know this much darling to be true To the end we'll make it through Side by side Hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder Together we stand darling in this life Nobody leads and nobody follows You and me walk it side by side Hand in hand, shoulder to shoulder Together we stand darling in this life Nobody leads and nobody follows You and me walk it side by side
