The Better Days To Come (part 1/2)

So here i am,
looking up into the sky,
Thinking about our future,
hearing our baby cry,

as we sit in the bedroom,
putting the baby to rest,
i think about the past,
thinking how i was blessed,

with a girl like you,
and a family like this,
i consider myself lucky,
and filled with such bliss,

but as life goes on,
as our child starts to age,
i kneel on one knee,
preparing to engage,

as you say yes,
i hear the bells ring,
thinking 'this is my future,
what more will it bring?',

it comes to the day,
when we're stood in the aisle,
the priest gives us blessings,
you begin to smile,

seeing that smile,
makes my life,
chanting 'finally her she is,
my one special wife',

but i go back to the present,
looking up into the sky,
thinking 'they will be the days,
my oh my'...
