Twenty-Two

It was 22 years ago you became my wife
For 22 years our partnership
Has has been central to my life
Our private journeys down the road of life
We've been walking side by side
Step by step into who knows what
It's been a magic and a thrilling ride

22 it's just a number it's not even prime
But 22 years is a big part
Of my whole lifetime
Our love has grown deeper
Than I thought it could ever be
I'm not surprised but I'm astonished
That we reached our 22nd anniversary

Arbitrary numbers we use to measure our lives
Counting up and counting down
Until the final day arrives
22 is just a number and I think I'll let it be
At least until that number finally reaches 23

Now after 22 years I want to celebrate
This day with you
Let's re- read our vows and see which parts
We're living up to
I'll tell you how deep is my love
And admiration for you
You'll say as much and the magic is
That I'll believe it's true

So let's raise a glass to 22
A number, just a number, but it will have to do
Somehow it says a lot, a whole lot, about me and you
And I'll end this song with my favourite words
"I love you"
