I love this song. It was the one we chose together to be our first dance song at our wedding. You can't always keep things from happening to those you love, but you can choose to love them through it all - and that is exactly what we promised each other we would do. I fall short sometimes, but this song reminds me to keep trying!
I Can Love You by Gary Allan
I can't stop your heart from breaking,
Can't make right mistakes we've made,
Can't dry your crying eyes,
For my little angels sake,
I can't make the sun keep smiling,
Or blow away the clouds,
There's some things in this old world girl,
I can't do nothing bout,
Can't make right mistakes we've made,
Can't dry your crying eyes,
For my little angels sake,
I can't make the sun keep smiling,
Or blow away the clouds,
There's some things in this old world girl,
I can't do nothing bout,
But I can love you,
Like I've always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won't ever see me run,
I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,
Like I've always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won't ever see me run,
I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,
Can't hold back the ocean waves,
Or stop a sinking ship,
Can't make a mountain move,
Or tell you how to live,
Or stop a sinking ship,
Can't make a mountain move,
Or tell you how to live,
But I can love you,
Like I've always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won't ever see me run,
I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Like I've always done,
And when the hard times come a knocking,
Honey you won't ever see me run,
I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,
And I won't leave you,
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,
But I can love you
When you need a friend,
Can't make the bad days that much better,
Baby than they've ever been,
But I can love you,
But I can love you
I am constantly in awe of this man - his patience, kindness, unwavering faith, and hard work. He puts up with my constant babbling, many feelings and some of my crazy ideas. He is for sure the counterweight I need. Life is pretty great with you, Ben Michael. Here's to many more years filled with laughter, love, tears, joy, friends, family and crazy feels from me!
