Lyrics
I met you at 19 when I had the biggest dreams
We talked about everything from cars to France to our future
I said I want a little house in the county
You said you'd like that too
I take a look in the mirror i'm 20 walking down the aisle
Looking up to see you standing there makes my heart smile
I promise to love you the rest of my life forever and always I do
You take my hands and say- I wanna start my life with you
In a little blue house with lots of trees where our kids can run around
And a porch swing with a tiny heart and my name right next to yours
You said "I'll look out for you I swear that it's true you'll never have to cry
Cause we'll be happy in the little blue house that I built for you and I
I look at you in the mirror, I'm 43 and you're still mine
With a family of our own and all we have is time
I said I would love you the rest of my life forever and always I do
You hold me close and say- My darling I'm in love with you
And our little blue house with lots of trees where our kids all run around
And our porch swing with a tiny heart and my name right next to yours
You said "I'll look out for you I swear that it's true you'll never have to cry
Cause we are happy in the little blue house that I built for you and I
I watched us grow old together
I watched our life through pictures
I watched us fight the world and make it out alright
I watched us raise our children
You stood by me through the hard nights
I watched my life with you but only in my mind
I take a look in the mirror, but I'm not walking down the aisle
I just turned 20 but now you've been gone for a while
All the things we planned they never worked out
But I think back to that day
When you told me all those things that I wish you didn't say
I guess that little blue house was a fantasy no you didn't have to lie
No porch swing or a tiny heart with your name right next to mine
You said I'll look out for you I swear that it's true you'll never have to cry
But when you said goodbye, you took away that little blue house of mine
