Livin' The Dream
©2019 Rick Leather/Karel Daniels
He helps her up - Puts the coffee on - And combs her silver hair
Takes her down to the shopping mall - Walks slow behind her chair
Doctors said there ain't no cure - She'd never be the same
But in their hearts they know for sure - One thing won't ever change
CH
They're livin' the dream - Still livin' the dream
From front porch kissin' to a life long vow
Fifty years of makin' every moment count
As long as they're together - They've got everything..cuz
They're livin' the dream
They couldn't wait to build a home and raise a family
Now the kids have grown and gone like most of her memories
He reminds her of those precious times and the precious times to come
And they'll hold on through their darkest nights just like they've always done-cuz
CH
They're livin' the dream - Still livin' the dream
From front porch kissin' to a life long vow
Fifty years of makin' every moment count
As long as they're together - They've got everything..cuz
They're livin' the dream
And every time she smiles and says his name
He thanks the Lord for one more perfect day...cuz
CH
They're livin' the dream - Still livin' the dream
From front porch kissin' and a life long vow
They're not about to stop now
They're livin' the dream - Still livin' the dream
'Cuz as long as they're together - They've got everything
Yea, as long as they're together - They've got all they need
They're livin' the dream....Still livin' the dream
