Perfect
“Baby, I’m dancing in the dark with you between my arms
Barefoot on the grass, listening to our favorite song
When you said you looked a mess, I whispered underneath my breath
But you heard it, darling, you look perfect tonight”
“Well I found a woman, stronger than anyone I know
She shares my dreams, I hope that someday I’ll share her home
I found a love, to carry more than just my secrets
To carry love, to carry children of our own
We are still kids, but we’re so in love
Fighting against all odds
I know we’ll be alright this time
Darling, just hold my hand
Be my girl, I’ll be your man
I see my future in your eyes”
Elise,
You have been my dearest friend since we were little girls running around with poofy atrocious 80's bangs (Thanks mom) childhood innocents, and the blondest of brains. These years together have seen us struggle and thrive... grow and learn... laugh with heads thrown back and ugly cry... I've said this a million times at least, but you are one of the friends who holds me together and I know I do the same for you! Now you are marrying this beard! I wouldn't be able to watch you begin this adventure if I didn't know deep down in my heart that you are utterly happy! It is such a beautiful thing, your love, and I can't wait to stand next to you in a few weeks as you step into a new world... the married old people world... I love you!
