Overboard


>My Favorite parts of the best W. Judd Song... I'm a lucky woman.

Since the moment my husband and I decided to create a family and share our love for each other, for the rest of our lives, I have known I made the best decision in a partner, lover, friend, and father of my child. He puts my daughter and me ahead of his every need, and repeatedly expresses his conviction that we are the most important things in his life. He must realize, that although these beautiful words leave him lips on a regular basis, it is his actions, every day, that make me really believe this bliss he has created for us is real and everlasting.

See, I told you I was a lucky woman. And with Tim, I always will be.

...

Love drove 'em uptown for a diamond.

And that's when he started going

Over the line

Working overtime

To give her things just to hear her say

She don't deserve 'em.

But he loved her and he just kept going

Overboard

Over the limit to afford

To give her things he knew she wanted

Cause without her where would he be?

You see him it's not for him.

She is his only need.

Ring on her finger and one on the ladder

A new promotion every now and then

Bonnie worked until she couldn't tie her apron then

Stayed at home and had the first of two children

And my how the time did fly

The babies grew up and moved away

Left 'em sitting on the front porch rocking and

Billy watching Bonnie's hair turn gray

And every once in a while

You could see him get up and he'd head downtown

'Cause he'd heard about something she wanted

And it just had to be found.

Didn't matter how simple or how much it was

Love

And boy ain't that love something

When it's strong enough to keep a man going

Over the line

Working overtime

To give her things just to hear her say she don't deserve 'em

But he loved her and he just kept going

Overboard

Over the limit to afford

To give her things he knew she wanted

'Cause without her where would he be?

You see it's not for him.

She is his only need.
