Vows


Darling, what did you mean 
when you said for better or for worse
How could you know at the time 

the weight of those five words 

How the lowest of lows and the highest of highs

Would pass before our eyes

How they’d fall on the good and on the bad

Still here we are here, hand in hand


And for as long as we both shall live

I’ll have a hold on you, like the gift it is

And while we are far from perfect 

This Love is surely worth it…

and I will love and cherish you,

‘Til death do us part

Oh til death do us part


Baby what did you mean

When you said In sickness and in health

Did you dream that this would be 

The cards that we’d be dealt

It seems we’ve walked our way across

Little bits of heaven and little bits of hell

Have we passed the worst of it

I guess Only time will tell


And for as long as we both shall live

I’ll have a hold on you, like the gift it is

And while we are far from perfect 

This Love is surely worth it…

and I will love and cherish you,

‘Til death do us part

Oh til death do us part


Honey, what did you mean

When you said for richer or for poor

Did you know the depths it’d take

To shepherd what we have and more

Little moments pretending to hold

the strings of blessings purse

Still learning to grasp loosely what we never really own


But for as long as we both shall live

I’ll have a hold on you, like the gift it is

And while we are far from perfect 

This Love is surely worth it…

and I will love and cherish you,

‘Til death do us part

Oh til death do us part


Yeah, For just as long as we both shall live

I’ll have an hold you - like the gift it is.

And while neither of us is perfect

This love he gives makes it all worth it

And I’ll love you like he does and cherish you

Till death do us part…

Oh oh, till death do us part


To have and to hold

For richer of poorer

To Love and cherish

Till death do us part
