I met a boy in school

Too good for me I thought.

He says words I don’t understand.

He’s been around the world.

He’s already got a beautiful plan.

He must.

He’s beautiful.

I’m happy for him.

.

We went separate ways.

I was doing fine.

I made my own plan.

I didn’t forget him.

He’s unforgettable.

.

He called me one day.

We had coffee together.

I was doing even better

.

I went to Vietnam.

He waited for me.

He went to Afghanistan.

I waited for him.

.

He gave me a ring

And we got married.

I gave him a son

And he owns our hearts.

.

I once met a boy in school

Too good for me I thought.

But he chose me and loved me

And loves me still.

He had a beautiful plan

And it’s daily fulfilled

With me and our son

And the grace of our Lord.

.

He still goes away.

I still wait for him.

People think he’s crazy.

I know he’s beautiful.

Love isn’t easy,

It’s just worth living and dying for.

.

.

I’m thankful for the boy I met in school.

 But one day he’ll be gone.

I will be too.

We’ll be with our Lord.

Because He loved us

And lived for us

And died for us.

And love is worth living and dying for.
