[Intro] [Verse 1] In the tapestry of time we've sewn Each thread a mo-ment we have known Forty one years a cher-ished span Hand in hand as woman and man Through ev-er-y dawn and set-ting sun You've been my light my on-ly one (on-ly one…) With ev-er-y heart-beat ev-er-y sigh My love for you will nev-er die (nev-er die…) [Pre-Chorus] And e-ven now I feel you near… (near…) In ev-er-y breath in ev-er-y tear… [Chorus] Forty one years and still I see Your love a-live in-side of me Through ev-er-y sha-dow through ev-er-y shore I’ll car-ry you for-ev-er-more (for-ev-er-more…) Though time may take what I can’t keep You’re in my soul in ev-er-y beat Forty one years… and ev-er true My heart still beats in time with you (with you…) [Verse 2] Your smile a beacon warm and bright Guid-ing me through the dark-est night Your laugh-ter a mel-o-dy sweet and pure In your em-brace I felt se-cure We've weathered storms and sailed the seas Found joy in quiet sim-ple pleas With ev-er-y step with ev-er-y glance You've been my part-ner in this dance [Pre-Chorus] And though the world feels still some-how I feel your hand with-in mine now… [Chorus] Forty one years and still I see Your love a-live in-side of me Through ev-er-y sha-dow through ev-er-y shore I’ll carry you for-ev-er-more (for-ev-er-more…) Though time may take what I can’t keep You’re in my soul in ev-er-y beat Forty one years… and ev-er true My heart still beats in time with you (with you…) [Bridge] Rob-in my love… (my love…) my heart’s de-light You are my day my quiet night And though you've gone where I can’t go You’re in the life I’ve come to know In ev-er-y star in ev-er-y breeze In whis-pered winds through mem-o-ry This isn’t where our sto-ry ends… Love like ours it nev-er bends [Final Chorus] Forty one years… (years…) they live in me A love that time can’t take or free Be-yond good-bye be-yond the blue I’ll find my way back home to you (home to you…)
