VERSE

We've been together 20 years. 

We've had a lot of laughs and tears.

We raised two kids, together in this home on this corner lot.

Although we've had our ups and downs.

We've seen the sun more than the clouds.

CHORUS

And I just want to thank you for standing by me for all this time. 

You're my best friend. 

VERSE

When you walked into my life, 

I knew that you would be my wife.

You were my first true love and I was hooked on you from the start.

And even when we'd have a fight, I knew I'd be back home at night.

CHORUS

And I just want to thank you for standing by me. 

I want to thank you for everything. 

You're my best friend.

VERSE

When we were younger, still in school. I used to be a fool for you.

Warm summer nights throwing dimes into dishes at the county fair.

Your hand it felt so good in mine.

Who would have thought you'd still be mine?

CHORUS

Well, I just want to thank you for standing by me.  

I want to thank you for everything. 

You're my best friend.

I'll never leave you. I'll always love you.

My best friend.
