They met when life was young and new
And started down life's winding road
With fields still bright with morning dew
They shared the joys and shared the load

Hand in hand, they've trod the miles,
Though steps grow slower with years
Looking back brings only smiles
Looking forward brings no fears

The course is stayed, the die is cast
Each day a treasure meant to share
And when the sun shall set at last
They'll walk together over there.
