The traditional gift for this upcoming occasion is ivory, and sense elephants don’t need to go extinct to prove I love you, I found an alternative instead. In the meantime, this will have to do.
I remember May 23rd better than yesterday
I remember the chance we took
how the words I do came out so easily
Did the words Are you sure ever cross your mind?
I wonder why us and the answer is simple.
We took a chance on love and got lucky
we started out not knowing a damn thing
but quickly got educated in the ways of trust
learned to let go, hoping that we would endure
It seems like every seven years is a chance
to fix the previous years
just when it seemed that love had run out
we gave the die one last try
hit seven twice and made it to eleven
we could roll another seven if you like?
try our hand at black jack
Maybe play Rolette and do better than fifty-fifty
win or lose I’m better betting on you.
We took a gamble fourteen years ago,
and come what may I’m willing to give love more tries
because on May 23rd I became the luckiest man alive.
Love you Baby through heartache and pain,
joy and good lovin.
Glad we took a chance and got lucky with love.
