I remember how we struggled 
When we first started out
She recalls we had it all 
Not what we did without
I think back on those hard times 
She remembers only love
Who am I to say that's not 
Exactly how it was.

That's how she remembers it
She was the lucky one
Just take a look at both of us
And you tell me who won
If she thinks I hung the stars
If that's what she believes
Then who am I to tamper with
Her perfect memory.

You ought to hear her tell the kids 
How mom and daddy met
It always amazes me 
The things that she forgets
Somehow she gets it turned around 
But its still my favorite part
How Mommy looked in Daddy's eyes 
And I stole away her heart.

That's how she remembers it
She was the lucky one
Just take a look at both of us
And you tell me who won
If she thinks I hung the stars
If that's what she believes
Then who am I to tamper with
Her perfect memory.

If I made all her dreams come true 
As far as she can see
Who am I to tamper with 
Her perfect memory
