Vicki

[Verse 1]
Morning light across the kitchen floor
Coffee brewing like the years before
Same old mug and that same old song
Some things stay where they belong
Forty-five years since I said I do
And every day still starts with you

[Chorus]
Every wrinkle, every smile
Every memory, every mile
Tells me one beautiful truth
Growing older next to you
Is a blessing, Vicki, through and through
I'll always be grateful for you

[Verse 2]
You keep the table full and the porch light on
Holding us together when the day goes wrong
Me and the guys and the girls all know
Your love's the place where we all go
You patch the hurts and you calm the storms
Your arms the place that keeps us warm

[Chorus]
Every wrinkle, every smile
Every memory, every mile
Tells me one beautiful truth
Growing older next to you
Is a blessing, Vicki, through and through
I'll always be grateful for you

[Bridge]
When the world gets loud, you're my steady ground
Your strength the quiet in every sound
Forty-five years and I'd do it all again
My love, my home, my best friend

[Verse 3]
Paw prints running down the hall
A cat asleep beneath it all
The dogs and cats all know it's true
The heart of this whole house is you
The way you give and never ask
A love like ours is built to last
So take my hand, the best's ahead
I meant each vow I ever said

[Chorus]
Every wrinkle, every smile
Every memory, every mile
Tells me one beautiful truth
Growing older next to you
Is a blessing, Vicki, through and through
I'll always be grateful for you

[Outro]
Thank you for the love, the laughter too
Forever, I'm still choosing you
