Hard work and grumpy compromise
That’s how romance works
But it’s silk and velvet most of the time
Though you can’t avoid
The trials and tribulations
That get in the way
It’s the good times we cherish
On our unending trail

I spent years without her
So I appreciate each day she is with me
A treasure I must say
We don’t have ups and downs
Maybe little bumps
Everyone has some
No problem for a love that’s tough

It’s easy does it most of the time
It’s good despite our quarrels
I don’t mind
Sometimes even she is right
I’ll eat some crow and it will be fine
It’s all good
