The Way It Is 2:58

This song (and some fudge) was to be my contribution to my sister's surprise wedding anniversary party. At least they got the fudge.

The Way It Is 2012

If you could change the past, what would you do?
Would it still be us? I'd like to think that's true.
When we first met, such a sweet romance;
I was swept away by the second dance.
I held you close, and I knew right then,
I'd never be alone again.

  I held your hand, gave you my heart
  Swore to God, we would never part.
  Got on one knee, made you my wife;
  Raised our kids; oh, what a life!

I'm just dreaming, but it's plain to me;
That the way it is, is how it's supposed to be.
To deserve your love, I will do my best.
From this day on, till I'm laid to rest.

  There's been sorrow, there's been pain;
  Once we got caught in the driving rain.
  Somehow survived, what can you do?

  Bottom line, love pulled us through.

Now I'm looking back, wondering what I've missed;
Where life might have gone, had we never kissed.
