Story behind the song
My wife and I had been married for 15 years at the time I wrote this song. I always wanted to write a song for her, and about our marriage, but wanted it to be all things that marriage is... happy, sad, angry, silly, whatever... we've had our challenges but still keep waking up next to each other every morning and fighting the good fight. She's my love.
Lyrics
I haven’t always been the best man or the best friend But I love you, have always loved you, And will always love you to the end Rivers of emotion Flow down from mountains forged over time The reward of what we have comes From both the mundane and the sublime I’ve sat down and tried to write this song So many times But I’ve never been able to Peel the words from my mind There are times I want to kill you And times I’d prefer to die Times I want to pull my hair out And times I want to cry But nothing can change my love for you And nothing can beat the memory Of good years, of great years, of challenges In our supercharged slice of life I know I can never fully appreciate All of the daily roles you play I can promise I’ll still come home sometimes And be insensitive anyway I look back at these last fifteen years And wonder where those two kids have gone We have so much to be proud of And so much to keep building on There are times that I need your humor And times I need your embrace Times all I want is to see your body And times what I need is to see your face There are times I’m sure you want to kill me But I’ll get you to change your mind I’ll try to be a better man If you’ll remain my woman sublime
