What Keeps Us Strong

Verse 1 In a small town by the river, where the willow trees sway, There lived a man named Johnny, who worked hard every day. He met a girl named Annie, with a smile so bright, They'd walk along the river, in the pale moonlight. Pre-Chorus Johnny made a promise, with a ring of gold, Said, "I'll love you forever, 'til we're gray and old." Chorus It's the simple things we do, that tell the tale of love, In a world that's always changing, it's the constants we're sure of. When the night feels endless and the road is long, It's the human heart that keeps us strong. Verse 2 Years went by like rivers flowing fast and free, Johnny built a home for their growing family. Annie kept the fire warm, with laughter in the air, Through the highs and lows, they always found a prayer. Pre-Chorus Every whispered secret, every shared dream, In the quilt of life, they wove a perfect seam. Chorus It's the simple things we do, that tell the tale of love, In a world that's always changing, it's the constants we're sure of. When the night feels endless and the road is long, It's the human heart that keeps us strong. Bridge One cold winter morning, Johnny fell ill, Annie held his hand, by the windowsill. She sang their favorite song, from those moonlit nights, And in his fading eyes, she saw the love light. Chorus It's the simple things we do, that tell the tale of love, In a world that's always changing, it's the constants we're sure of. When the night feels endless and the road is long, It's the human heart that keeps us strong. Outro In the small town by the river, where the willow trees sway, Annie tells the story, of Johnny every day. And though he's gone, his love lives on, In every heart, in every song.
