There Was Love

He was twenty two, she was just twenty
Living on nothing as they have little money
But there was love

Just starting out, their life so new together
A baby on the way and life's stormy weather
But there was love

Life seems so short when the moments flee
We wonder why so fast, it has to be
But there was love

When memories come, they help us know
We've treasured everything, even bumps in the road
Yes there was love

Fifteen years later, they went so quickly
Their daughters growing up, she's just so pretty
And there was love

Homecoming queen, then off to college
Their baby is gone to gain more knowledge
And there was love

Life seems so short when the moments flee
We wonder why so fast, it has to be
But there was love

When memories come, they help us know
We've treasured everything, even bumps in the road
Yes there was love

Graduation, marriage, then a new grand baby
Kindergarten, high school, now granddaughters a lady
Because there was love

Grandma passes, then grandpa too
Their legacy, life's lessons and loyalty true
Because their was love

Life seems so short when the moments flee
We wonder why so fast, it has to be
But there was love

When memories come, they help us know
We've treasured everything, even bumps in the road
Yes there was love
