Together

Guess what today is?
It's the anniversary of when
You moved in with me
That was four years ago
I just wanted to say
Happy Anniversary, Baby
I'm so happy we found each other
And sometimes it doesn't seem
Like it's been that long at all
But then again I know it has
Because of how deep
Our love has grown
I'm constantly amazed at
How much I love you
And just when I think
I couldn't love you more than I do
You do something special that
Totally blows me away
Then I find myself
Loving you more than
I ever thought possible
And during this time
We've both grown too
We've worked really hard
On our individual issues
We're still recovering from
The abuses of our childhoods
We both have a long way to go
In the healing process
But we have come really far
Since the day we moved in together
I believe that we are healthier now
Because of each other
Than we would have been on our own
Even with our issues, our relationship is
The healthiest one I've ever had
I love where we are right now
We're getting married next month
Which isn't what most of my friends
Would have predicted for us
Back when I first met you
I got a lot negative feedback
From most of my so called friends
They thought I was crazy
And was risking my very life
By getting involved with
Someone over the Internet
And that I couldn't possibly fall in love
With a person before I met them
Well, fortunately for me
Nothing was farther from the truth
I'm so glad I took a chance on you
You weren't an axe murderer or a thief
You were the most intriguing
And understanding person I'd ever met
The whole time getting to know you
I never felt safer than
When I was talking to you
Neither one of us played games
We were up front and honest
About ourselves and our pasts
Some might consider us lucky though
And in a way I guess we really are
We were actually at the right place
At the right time to find each other
And this incredible love of ours
I am happier now than I have ever been
So, on this fourth anniversary
Of our moving in together
I just wanted to say
I love our life
I love our story
And I love you more today
Than I did four years ago
And I wish for us
Many more happy years
Together
