Katie Drake And Then lyrics

Verse 1
Tonight had seemed to her like a dream
And she wished it would never end
She had known from the first day they'd met
That she'd found her lifelong friend

Then he took her hand and got down on one knee
And her head started to swim
Then her said the words the she'd always dreamed
He asked her to marry him

Chorus 1
And then, she cried
Tears of joy filling her eyes
She knew right then
They'd be together the rest of their lives

Verse 2
They'd always wanted children of their own
But every time they tried it didn't work out
So when they found out they were having a child
They didn't know whether to believe or doubt
Not a single day of those nine months went by
That they didn't stop to pray
When the doctor handed them their baby girl
They didn't know what to say

Chorus 2
So then, they cried
Tears of joy filling their eyes
They knew right then

The Lord had blessed them with this new life

Bridge
And their lives were blessed
And their love it grew
Through the good and the hard times
Together they always stood

Verse 3
He asked if he could sit and talk for a while
Just like they used to do
She looked at him and said with a smile
I'm so thankful God gave me you

Their conversation turned to the past
And they talked over times of old
He held her hand and she laughed out loud
At the stories that he told

Chorus 3
And then, he cried
Tears of joy filling his eyes
He knew right then
The Lord would take good care of his wife

Then he kissed her one last time
And then
