I got the song and lyrics below from Imeem. I want to talk about this song, which is equally lovely with those other love songs I have blogged about. This song reminds me of my second parents -my dad's cousin, who's more than a brother to him. I consider them my second family because they were there when I was growing up, they raised me as their own. They were like parents to me as well.
This May, they will be celebrating their wedding anniversary (I think 34 years) and so I remember this song. In my long stint of stay with them, I've learned so much about their love story, their family background, where they grew up, their kids, their themesong... and this is it. Lovely isn't it?
I was a witness to so many obstacles in their lived, their happiness, their success, failure, sadness, weakness, flaws and everything a couple would face in their life. But they remain together, they are one as before. Everyday, they never fail to show their love to each other. They are really living to what this song had conveyed to them more than 3 decades ago when they decided to say "I do".
This is my gift to you uncle Rem and aunt Espie. You are a blessing to me and I love you both! Happy Anniversary!
Youre the Best Thing That Ever Happened to Me - Andy Williams
Lyrics of the song
I've had my share,
Of life's ups and downs,
but fate's been kind,
the downs had been few,
I guess you could say,
I've been lucky,
Or I guess you could say,
Iit's all because of you.
If anyone, should ever write, my life story,
for whatever reason there might be,
you'd be there,
between each line of fame and glory,
'cause your the best thing that ever happened to me,
Oh your the best thing that ever happened to me.
There had been times,
when times were hard,
but always somehow I made it, I made it through,
But for every moment that I've been hurtin',
there was a moment spent.....
just loving you,
If anyone should ever write my life story,
for whatever, for whatever reason there might be,
you'd be there, between each line of fame and glory,
'cause your the best thing that ever happened to me,
your the best thing that ever happened to me,
your the best thing....
that ever happened me.
