I met you in the dark, you lit me up
You made me feel as though I was enough
We danced the night away, we drank too much

I see her from across the dark room. My heart feels lifted and fluttery. We haven't been together very long, but I already felt safe around her. Stronger around her. I walked over to her, and took her hand. She smiled brightly, which made me smile. I lead her to dance with me. We were both a little drunk, but I couldn't care less. (Just go with it)

I held your hair back when
You were throwing up
Then you smiled over your shoulder
For a minute, I was stone-cold sober
I pulled you closer to my chest

I hold her hair back and rub soothing circles on her back. She is heaving over the toilet from drinking so much. I was feeling the effects of the alcohol myself, but I didn't drink as much as her. When she stops she smiles at me. "Thanks Mark. I'm sorry about this." I feel fine in that moment, like nothing has effected me. Her smile makes my heart stop. I pull her closer to me, hugging her tight. "Don't worry about." I reassure.

And you asked me to stay over
I said, I already told ya
I think that you should get some rest

"Stay over? I don't wanna be alone." She whispered. I chuckle a little. "I already told you, I think you should just get some rest." "You help me rest." She retorts.

I knew I loved you then
But you'd never know
'Cause I played it cool when I was scared of letting go

I tuck her into her bed, and get ready to leave. I couldn't tell her how much I wanted to curl up next to her as she suggested. I already know I love her. But I get so scared of getting close.

I know I needed you
But I never showed
But I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old

I need her in my life. "Mark, are you really in this? You always seem so distant." She says. I look at her seriously, and take her hand in mine. "(Y/n)...I love you. I-I have my own issues, but I promise I'm working on them. I struggle to let myself get close to someone after my last relationship, but I promise. I wanna be with you. I love you."

Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

"I love you too Mark." She tells me, making me over joyed. She gives a small smile before pecking my lips. "I'll help if you want. I don't wanna let go."

I'll wake you up with some breakfast in bed
I'll bring you coffee with a kiss on your head
And I'll take the kids to school
Wave them goodbye
And I'll thank my lucky stars for that night

I slide the wedding band onto her finger. Her in a gorgeous shite gown, and me in a tux. Everything seems to perfect. "(Y/n), I vow to make sure you wake up with a smile. Whether it be breakfast in bed, or a simple kiss on your head, I'll always be right next to you. I vow to love and cherish you everyday. I'll help with whatever you need, and take any future kids to school. And it'll always be because of the night I realized I loved you when I held your hair back." She holds tears back. "You may now kiss the bride." I cup her cheek, and we share a tender kiss as husband and wife.

When you looked over your shoulder
For a minute, I forget that I'm older
I wanna dance with you right now

She smiles at me over her shoulder as she cooks dinner. I give her a dopey grin. I feel like I'm back at that night, seeing her across the room. The urge to dance with her filling my heart once again. Then our two sons run into the kitchen. "Mommy, Brody took my truck, and he broke the wheel!" "Nuh-Uh! Timmy did it!" We both laugh at their bickering. "Boys, don't lie to me. What really happened?" She asks in her mom voice. "Ok, fine! We tried to make a cool ramp for the truck to fly off!" Timmy starts. "But then it hit the wall really hard and it broke." Brody finishes. "See, don't lie. That's bad. Go clean up, and I'll see what I can do about the wheel." I intervene. Timmy hands me the truck, and they leave. "Thanks Mark." I twirl her around. "Of course, love." I kiss her lips. "Making me feel so young." She teases.

Oh, and you look as beautiful as ever
And I swear that everyday'll get better
You make me feel this way somehow

She jokes, but to me, we'll always be young. She's still as beautiful as ever to me. "Well you make everyday a little be better then the last." I reply. I never thought someone could effect as much as she does.

I'm so in love with you
And I hope you know
Darling your love is more than worth its weight in gold

"Well your love means everything to me." I tell him with a smile. "You make fall more in love with you everyday." I add. He chuckles a little, wrapping his arms around waist. "We're so cheesy." "Maybe...but I love it." We kiss again, although it's ruined by two childish "Ewww!"s. I look at our two sons watching in the doorway.

We've come so far my dear
Look how we've grown
And I wanna stay with you until we're grey and old

They make me think about everything. How Mark and I went from two people at a party to married with kids. I absolutely adore how much we've grown, and I never regret a thing. I'm happy with Mark, and happy to be with him for the rest of my life.

Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

We lay in bed together, looking into each other's eyes. "I told you I wouldn't let go." I say. He smiles. "I didn't doubt you."

I wanna live with you
Even when we're ghosts
'Cause you were always there for me when I needed you most

I think about all my break downs and tears over the years. All the pain and struggle. And Mark was always there to make it better. I want to always be with him. "When we're dead, we should haunt a cemetery together." I joke. "Ahhh, yes! Scare all the drunk teens away! That's be awesome!" He cheers." I laugh. "As long as you're there."

I'm gonna love you 'til
My lungs give out
I promise 'til death we part like in our vows

"I'll love you even after death, so being there won't be a problem." I reply. She smiles at me. "Death can't stop us." She cuddles into my side. "I love you, Mark."

So I wrote this song for you, now everybody knows
Finally it's just you and me 'til we're grey and old

Timmy's daughter, our grand daughter, rushes up the porch. "Grandpa!" She cheers. "He there, Penny!" I lift her up to the best of my ability. "Hey Dad. Is mom inside?" Timmy asks spouts as she comes out onto the porch. "Not anymore." She kisses his cheek. "Hi honey." "Hi Mom. Are you two alright for the weekend with her?" He frets. "We'll be fine! Go on! Have a good anniversary weekend." I wave him off. "Okay, okay, bye Penny." "Bye, Daddy!" She waves at him. I carry her inside, while (Y/n) grabs her bag. Once I set her down, she rushes off. "Penny!" I call. She comes back with my guitar. "Grandpa! Can you sing the song you sing for Grandma? The one you sing because you love her!" (Y/n) and I share a soft and knowing smile. "Sure Penny!" "One day, I hope someone will sing this song for me too." Penny decides a loud.

Just say you won't let go
Just say you won't let go

"The person who sings this song to you will be the person who always holds on. Will never let you go." I tell her. "And you'd do the same for them." She gives me a toothy grin. "Like Grandma?" She asks. I look over at (Y/n), her eyes filled with love and reminiscent tears.

Just say you won't let go
Oh, just say you won't let go

"Yes Penny. Just like Grandma."
