Candy was getting ready for the reception. She had her hair in a bun, it was still blond but with turning to silver. She put on a nice blue dress and her husband was helping her with the zipper in the back.
- Thank you honey, said Candy smiling.
- You're welcome darling, said Terry
- Let me help you with your tie...
- All right..., he said smiling
She was fixing his tie smiling, and he was smiling. They thanked God everyday for their bliss.
- I can't believe it's been forty years, said Candy, forty years together...
- I think about our meeting like it was yesterday. We were so young..., said Terry.
- But you knew what you wanted; me!
- Yes, from the second I saw you, even before you opened your mouth...
- I could've been a selfish bitch...
- With that face full of freckles? Never! You looked like an angel...
- Oh Terry... I never get tired of hearing you complimenting me...
- We've been through so much together, through the years...
I can't remember when you weren't there
When I didn't care for anyone but you
I swear we've been through everything there is
Can't imagine anything we've missed
Can't imagine anything the two of us can't do
Through the year, you've never let me down
You turned my life around, the sweetest days I've found
I've found with you ... Through the years
I've never been afraid, I've loved the life we've made
And I'm so glad I've stayed, right here with you
Through the years
I can't remember what I used to do
Who I trusted whom, I listened to before
I swear you've taught me everything I know
