Raymond

[Verse 1]
Miles and miles of empty road
Two hearts carrying a heavy load
We spoke through nights across the wire
Five long years, a slow-burning fire
Waiting, wondering when we'd know
If this quiet dream could grow

[Chorus]
And here we are, still standing strong
The courage that it took so long
Every mountain that we climbed
We made it, love, one step at a time
Grateful for the life we've made
For the promises we never break

[Verse 2]
We built a home from hope and trust
Weathered every storm and gust
When the darkness came to stay
Raymond, you never turned away
Your steady hands, your gentle voice
You made the fear become a choice

[Chorus]
And here we are, still standing strong
The courage that it took so long
Every mountain that we climbed
We made it, love, one step at a time
Grateful for the life we've made
For the promises we never break

[Bridge]
Through the fight, through the years
You dried away my every tear
Raymond, all I am is you
Everything we dreamed came true

[Verse 3]
Now I look back on the road
And thank the map that led us home
Joy in every ordinary day
Your love, the light that lights my way
Whatever comes, we'll face it too
Raymond, forever I choose you

[Chorus]
And here we are, still standing strong
The courage that it took so long
Every mountain that we climbed
We made it, love, one step at a time
Grateful for the life we've made
For the promises we never break

[Outro]
Across the country, into your arms
Home at last, safe from harm
Still standing, you and me
