All those years ago When we first met That time in our lives we won't forget Sparks and fire, flames of love Yea, we were the unlikely ones Yet to us it was plain to see Me and you, you and me Were meant to be as one forever We tried to fight it We tried to run But we both lost And we both won I lost me and you lost you We found each other that much is true Now look at all that we have got to show Never would have guessed it All those years ago All those years ago When we were young In those carefree days When we first fell in love How we got here is hard to know It happens fast but comes on slow Never would have guessed it All those years ago All those years ago When the kids were born How we fought to hold those babies in our arms Still wrestling with our dreams Trying to learn what grown up means Now that the time was not our own Always family close at home How we'd run to be alone somewhere together We sacrificed for tomorrow Grew deeper through our days of sorrow As time went by the more we learned To trust in God in our lives And survived the winds of change whenever they would blow Never would have guessed it All those years ago All those years ago When life was sweet And everyday was dancing in the street How we got here is hard to know It happens fast but comes on slow Never would have guessed it All those years ago All those years ago When the world seemed right And the only thing in front of us was life We never dreamed that you'd be gone And I'd be left to carry on Without you by my side To help me through the night How it happened girl We'll never really know I never would have guessed it All those years ago
