Story behind the song
I've seen so many couples break apart in the last 59 years, and so often they are talking and not hearing (or understanding) what the other is saying.
Lyrics
29 Years of Marriage Chris Stearns
It’s a lovely day for driving and the wind blows thru’ her hair
The evening sun is shining warm on your face so fair.
Just a few more miles to the airport and you’ll be on the silver bird
My life is crumbling into dirt and I know good bye will be the final word.
29 years of marriage just flew off in the sky
A loneliness engulfs me but I’m too damned stunned to cry
I turn and join the faceless crowd to the exit door
My love has left me and I know she’ll return no more.
Did you ever once consider to spend some time with me
Company trips and the good old friends were more than your family
You missed all the graduations and your daughters wedding day
Shackled to you for all this time I can finally break away
29 years of marriage I’ve been the devoted wife
I finally found the courage to claim back my life
I saw you leave for the final time and you didn’t shed a tear
I see the world before me but alone I’ve learned to face any fear
I never saw it coming You were too damn blind to see
You could warned me darling You never listened to me
29 years of marriage now we go our separate ways
Not much time to build a life and no time for yesterday
29 years of marriage through the good times and the bad
I know I’ll miss you darlin, but broken dreams were all we really had
