I Remember When

You walked down the aisle
Like the princess to the hero
For better or for worse
Happiness and Sorrow

We exchanged our vows
With all the best intentions
The space between what’s said and done
Leaves me feeling senseless
But tarnish from those heavy years
Still polishes away

And I remember when
I remember when you first loved me

If only I knew now
Just what I knew back then
We could find our way
Back to the altar once again

Maybe it’s ok
To want the mystery to linger
Like the diamonds and the gold
Wrapped around your finger
But tarnish from those heavy years
Still polishes away

We’ll solve our mysteries just one clue at a time
With fear and trembling inside
There we will tell the truth which has not failed us yet
I can’t forget, I can’t forget
