One Special Romance
Verse:
The wife used to say I'm like an old mengy dog
I'm either scratchin', barkin' or sleepin' like a log
Fact is, she'd come runnin' whenever I'd tell her
I'd say c'mon snuggle up girl right here with Old Yeller
Pre-chorus:
And she'd tell me with a smile I was thinkin' smart
That day I got down and asked for her heart
N' I'd reply, yes indeed love, we all have our moments
Then I'd quietly thank the Good Lord... for one special romance
Chorus:
One special romance... Lucky as can be
One special romance... My Melee and me
Verse:
Three years ago we lost everything
A tornado hit us, the worst one that spring
Oh, it hurt, and we cried, I gotta say it was tough
But as husband and wife we picked ourselves up
Pre-chorus:
N' she told me with a smile I was thinkin' smart
That night I laid on her and protected her heart
I replied, yes indeed love, we all have our moments
Then I quietly thanked the Good Lord... for one special romance
Chorus:
One special romance... Lucky as can be
One special romance... My Melee and me
Bridge:
Now it's been two weeks since she went away
The house feels empty, but my heart's ok
Cause she's got her wings and I've my memories
And once in a while she's right there in my dreams
Pre-chorus:
And she tells me with a smile she was thinkin' smart
That day she said yes when I asked for her heart
N' I reply yes indeed love, we all have our moments
Then I quietly thank her... for one special romance
Chorus:
One special romance... Lucky as can be
One special romance... My Melee and me...
