Just me... I occasionally sit in with friends
Story behind the song
This song is an autobiography of sorts. It timelines my life since I married my wife Michelle 14 years ago. And how precious time is.
Lyrics
You know it’s funny, but as a child when we think of time, it seems to go by so slow.
But as an adult thinking back over it all, it only lasts but a minute.
It all started way back in 94,
I got on one knee outside your door
In the pouring rain, my heart was pounding in my chest
Then in 5 months we said I do
You looked at me as I looked at you
From that moment on, every year has been our best.
Till death do us part just ain’t long enough
Through sickness and health, when times got tough
For better or worse, through good times and the bad
I wouldn’t trade another lifetime, for the minutes, the minutes that we had
Back in 99 when our son came
And on that day our lives were changed
You became a mom
And I became a dad
Then in two years there came little a girl
And with every smile, she changed our world
Watching them grew up, time was all we had.
Till death do us part just ain’t long enough
Through sickness and health, when times got tough
For better or worse, through good times and the bad
I wouldn’t trade another lifetime, for the minutes, the minutes that we had
From the Rose I bought for our first date
To the flowers they lay upon my grave
I cherish you through the good times, and the bad
I wouldn’t trade another lifetime, for the minutes, the minutes that we had
A minute here, a minute there
Time goes by without a care
And as I look back on all the minutes past
I wouldn’t trade another lifetime, for the minutes, the minutes that we had
