Lyrics

[Verse 1]
This is us down at the Mardi Gras, this is us in your daddy's car
You and the missin' link, yeah, I'd had a little too much to drink now
Too long in the sun, havin' too much fun
You and me and our memories, this is us
[Verse 2]
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
[Verse 3]
You're walkin' at the barbecue, yeah, when you said I do
Hand jivin' on the bar room floor, you in that wedding coat you wore
And you in that amazing dress, I was stoned on love, I guess
You and me we were meant to be, this is us
[Verse 4]
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
[Verse 5]
This is us on out honeymoon, in our hotel room
Sittin' by the wishin' well, checkin' out of the love motel
Makin' plans for the sunshine state, waitin' at the terminal gate
You and me makin' history, this is us
[Verse 6]
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
[Verse 7]
And our baby boy with our pride and joy
You at the Sunday game standin' next to what's his name
On our anniversary with the family
You and me and our memories, this is us
[Verse 8]
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
This is us, this is us
