You placed gold 
on my finger
You brought love 
like I'd never known
You gave life 
to our children
And to me 
a reason to go on

You're my bread 
when I'm hungry
You're my shelter 
from troubled winds
You're my anchor 
in life's ocean
But most of all, 
you're my best friend

When I need hope 
and inspiration
You're always strong 
when I'm tired and weak
I could search 
this whole world over
But you'd still be, everything, that I need

You're my bread 
when I'm hungry
You're my shelter 
from troubled winds
You're my anchor 
in life's ocean
But most of all 
you're my best friend

You're my bread 
when I'm hungry
You're my shelter 
from troubled winds
You're my anchor 
in life's ocean
But most of all 
you're my best friend
