The Journey With You
Written by: Doug Scharley
Lyrics © D. R. Scharley Consulting Inc.
The start of the journey
Was filled with fireworks
We were so much in love
We ignored each other’s quirks
We didn’t even realize
That the journey had begun
We were caught up in the moment
Rejoicing in the sun
Those were the precious times
That we look back on fondly
When our relationship was strengthening
In its infancy
(Chorus)
The journey with you
Is one I’d choose again
A partner through my lifetime
Until the very end
The road can get bumpy
And has its ups and downs
But from the moment that I saw you
I’ve always been spellbound
I remember our wedding
Just like yesterday
I was filled with a happiness
That’s never gone away
The only thing better
Were the days that you gave birth
I knew at those moments
I was the luckiest man on earth
Raising our children
Seemed to go by in a flash
It took all of our energy
And every penny of our cash
(Chorus)
The journey with you
Is one I’d choose again
A partner through my lifetime
Until the very end
The road can get bumpy
And has its ups and downs
But from the moment that I saw you
I’ve always been spellbound
Now we’ve settled in
To a comfortable routine
We’re better friends today
Than we’ve ever been
Longevity takes sacrifice
And is its own reward
A lifetime of shared memories
With the one I have adored
The plans we had so long ago
Unfolded differently
But the dreams we shared together
Last through eternity
(Chorus)
The journey with you
Is one I’d choose again
A partner through my lifetime
Until the very end
The road can get bumpy
And has its ups and downs
But from the moment that I saw you
I’ve always been spellbound
