Kept Every Vow

They worked their way through college

Savin' pennies for the life they wanted

Dreamin' bout a little house with a yard

He bought her a layaway diamond

She said yes, and she couldn't stop smilin'

It wasn't much, but it was a start

For the fire that still burns in their hearts

They kept every vow

Somehow, they held on through every storm

They worked it out

When the going got rough

They never gave up on the love that they found

From, "You may kiss the bride," that Summer day in '85

From then until now, they kept every vow

Four kids and a few years later

Cancer came and tried to take her

He never left her side

That time that he got fired

She said, "We'll be alright"

Her faith in him and God never died

Through the ups and the downs of this life

They kept every vow

Somehow, they held on through every storm

They worked it out

When the going got rough

They never gave up on the love that they found

From, "You may kiss the bride," that Summer day in '85

From then until now, they kept every vow

They kept every vow

God knows, it's been far from perfect

But all that they've been through's been worth it

They kept every vow

Somehow, they held on through every storm

They worked it out

When the goin' got rough

They never gave up on the love that they found

From, "You may kiss the bride," that Summer day in '85

From then until now, they kept every vow

They kept every vow

They worked their way through college

Savin' pennies for the life they wanted
