Well, it started in a small town, where the stars shine bright,

Well, it started in a small town, where the stars shine bright, Cheryl caught my eye, and oh, what a sight. We danced in the moonlight, under the old oak tree, Forty-eight years later, and it's still you and me. We raised two fine boys in a world so wide, Shane and Chad, they've made us proud, filled with love and pride. With Graci and Emma, our granddaughters’ sweet smiles, Cheryl's laughter rings out, it’s been worth all the miles. Oh, Cheryl, my darling, you’re the heart of our home, With your garden of flowers, you’ve made love bloom. In the kitchen, you whip up magic on a plate, Forty-eight years of love, and there’s still no one better, I’ll wait. Through storms and through sunshine, we’ve weathered the years, Every joy and every challenge, we shared all the tears. From the first day together, till this moment right now, You’re my partner in life; I don’t know how. Oh, Cheryl, my darling, you’re the heart of our home, With your garden of flowers, you’ve made love bloom. In the kitchen, you whip up magic on a plate, Forty-eight years of love, and there’s still no one better, I’ll wait. Now we sit on the porch, watching sunsets fade, Hand in hand, looking back on the love that we made. Art and laughter surround us, with every hue and tone, Cheryl, my forever, you’ll never be alone. Oh, Cheryl, my darling, you’re the heart of our home, With your garden of flowers, you’ve made love bloom. In the kitchen, you whip up magic on a plate, Forty-eight years of love, and there’s still no one better, I’ll wait. So here’s to many more, as the seasons roll by, With you by my side, love, we’ll reach for the sky.
