My love, I cannot believe that today is finally here
You are my inspiration, my true love,
My best friend, my life
My compass, my true north
I waited for you my whole life
I would always wonder then
If there's someone out there for me, too
Then, you came and I just knew, it is you
You changed my life
You saw me when I couldn't see myself
You brushed hues I never knew existed
You made me happy
You are my home in every storm
My safe haven, my refuge
My calmness in the sea
You are a beautiful promise I'm keeping forever
If I had my life to live all over again,
I'll find you when we're seven
I will love you and I will keep you
And will always do even until we're ninety-seven
You are a once in a lifetime kind of love
The kind of love that stays
The kind that never wears out
The kind that just loves even when I'm not perfect
My love, thank you for loving me
For seeing the best in me
For sticking with me even at my lowest
My life is happier with you in it
And as we walk this mile together,
I am finally home, with you
Our goodbyes will only be goodnights
My love, you are home I find in a person
