We said “My beloved and my friend!” in our Weding Vows Celebrating: Our 30th Weding Anniversary Lyrics: Kevin G. Pammett, Dec 2009 Based on: Simon & Garfunkel's “Bridge Over Troubled Waters” --------------------------------------------------------------- "My beloved and my friend!" That is what we did proclaim to each other... I'm on your side, Oh, and you're on mine. I always count on you! My beloved and my best friend, You can count on me! My beloved and my best friend, And I'll count on you! When we said those words, so long ago, We knew that it was true for that moment... But down the road... Oh, how could we know? What would the future hold? My beloved and my best friend, You can count on me! Mon aimée et ma meilleur amie, And I'll count on you! Through the high school years, some growing pains... We learned to listen well to each other... Yes, there were times when we both felt alone.... But faith and love prevailed. My beloved and my best friend, You can count on me! My beloved and my best friend, And I'll count on you! Now we've 30 years; "Empty nest" ... Our girls now on their own... But some things never change: Our love is steadfast, has always been Through thick and thin "Love Lasts!" My beloved and my best friend, I'll always love you! My beloved and my best friend, You can count on me! On me! Count on me!
