Song is a true collaboration from the very start. It literally started with a blank paper and a chord progression. Rosky did all of the guitars (Acoustic and Electric) and Kratzman did all of the vocals and the bass.

Story behind the song
The lyrics are based on conversations and memories from Dave on how he began his relationship with his dear wife. Dave had the music progression for some time and we collaborated on putting it all together and making it fit the lyrics.
The song went through some technical issues and glitches that GREATLY extended the time to completion, but Dave hung in there to bring it to closure.
Lyrics
1. How was I to know, when I was only nineteen?
That life would become so sweet for someone like me
So few get the chance to ever meet an angel
Yet walk together and; share our lives all these years
I know its already been said before
You an live a thousand years
And still be able to count the men
That get to hold on to a dream
2. Light may turn to Amber then fade to black
Give passionate promises you cant take back
But who am I to stand here in the wrong place
On a date one night, with the wrong face
3. Our second date you prepared a home cooked meal
To teach me how love and a home can feel
Now autumn days have arrived; alone again we dine
Sharing quiet dinners, candles, and wine
4. I would never buy or trade this beggars life
For anything more valuable than this fingered ring
To be able to stand in your quiet presence
To build my world upon your precious kiss
