She moved north in 2010 from the sandy shores of Wilmington
It was time to trade in the palm trees for the pines
Our parents thought that we were crazy
But we both knew that we'd get married
Those summer days were hot and lazy
But they turned to winter nights
The lake house was overgrown
We took it back and made it our own
Living together in a place I once called home
We always loved to go all night
Sit around the fire and watch the sunrise
We didn't realize the tough times were ahead
Oh how strong we've become
With each rising moon there is a setting sun
And oh, I know we'll make it through
Because the reason I'm still here, is you
It was a gray October day when we exchanged our vows
The leaves were falling from the trees and to the ground
We planned to start a family, but the world shut down
And things got crazy
It was the brightest light in our darkest night
Oh how strong we've become
With each rising moon there is a setting sun
And oh, I know we'll make it through
Because the reason I'm still here, is you
That day the stars aligned, and with them our sweet Adeline
We brought her home while the world was stuck inside
Dark days will come and go, but the best ones lie ahead I know
At the end of this will be a life we'll call our own
Oh how strong we've become
With each rising moon there is a setting sun
And oh, I know we'll make it through
Because the reason I'm still here, is you
Don't ever worry about facing these days alone
I will be by your side 'til our names are etched in stone
