Yeah it's been a really long year
|
Flew to Oklahoma
|
That's where he got down on one knee
|
When I told my mom she was in tears
|
The day we pulled out her wedding gown
|
She hadn't looked at it in 40 years
|
And I, I watched her reminisce for awhile
|
Just 19 and walking down the aisle
|
|
Yeah it's been a really long year
|
Made new friends in Kansas
|
Watched my grandpa be an auctioneer
|
Brother made that farm look like a dream
|
The marching band played in the parade
|
And all the bridesmaids in the trolley waved
|
And I, I watched their faces for some time
|
And somewhere over that rainbow was my life
|
|
Somewhere over the rainbow
|
Over the rainbow
|
Skies will be blue
|
Somewhere over the rainbow
|
Over the rainbow
|
Dreams do come true
|
|
Yeah it's been a really long year
|
Laura had a baby boy while I was travelling in Germany
|
Mother lost her friend in summertime
|
Before she went to be with the Lord
|
She told my brother she'd find him a wife
|
And I, when I heard that story how I cried
|
Cuz I could hear the longing in his voice
|
I could see the hope in his eyes
|
Yeah, I could see him dancing with his bride
|
|
Yeah it's been a really long year
|
Never thought that I would see the day
|
I'd dance with grandpa on my wedding day
|
