Son, we've always had a close relationship,
that was, until you got married, just a year ago,
and now I've got some thoughts on my mind,
yes, there's a few heartfelts that you should know:
Because I was never very close to you growing up,
but that's only because father's drinking tore us apart,
we would talk on holidays but that was about it,
so our relationship didn't exactly get off to a flying start.
Seriously, I know you hate the rumor mill,
but it's you that I'd like to talk about,
you see, not only have you taught me about nursing,
but this is what I'm saying on the way out.
You see, I aspire to your kind of relationship,
it's one where the mail is always on time,
it's one where you sing and dance in the kitchen,
even when you can't get your words to rhyme.
Seriously, I would like us to be in more of a relationship,
I'd like to explore just where this journey ends,
but just in case, just in case that never happens,
I want you to know I'm also happy to be just friends.
But now I?ve finally "grown up",
I have discovered what a parent?s love is truly worth,
because the relationship I have with the pair of you,
it?s precious, in fact, it?s the most precious thing on this earth.
Our adversities have only made our relationship stronger,
and where are the doubters who said we?d never last?
And I?m proud we ate MREs and slept on a poncho,
no one can ever take that from us, that?s our past!
And it started as a distant relationship,
we were many miles apart,
we were separated by geography,
but we were joined together at the heart.
Now, it's been quite hard to spend time with each other,
and that has certainly caused some clouds of gloom,
it would be awkward to have an open relationship,
but I do enjoy those moments in my operating room.
Our relationship is the best I've ever had,
you truly are my soul-mate and the love of my life,
I just wanted to say, "I'm proud of you",
and very proud to be known as your wife.
I really do value our relationship,
I need your love and support to make me complete,
I can't imagine my future without you,
it's a future that I never, ever want to meet.
But it took us 17 long years to reconnect,
and in Princeton, we re-found what we?d once lost,
but since then, we?ve suffered a long distance relationship,
but that was the pact we made (and we knew the cost).
I know our relationship wasn?t easy,
but life is never a rose filled dream,
but we had deep belief in our strong and powerful love,
with (NAME), I proved to The World we truly were a team.
So I wasn't looking for a relationship,
but like that ship, I didn't account for the winds of fate,
and now I'm just so thankful for those favorable breezes,
because of them, I've finally found my soul-mate.
We're so proud of your relationship,
the perfect epitome of a husband and wife,
and if I could not have a marriage like yours,
well, then I'd rather be single for the rest of my life!
You have an immense love for your family,
and your generosity knows no bounds,
whether it's (name)taking (name) to (place),
or Mom just doing her nursing home rounds.
Because now, we value our relationship a great deal,
and we've all grown up to be the very best of friends,
and now you're going to be busy being a mum,
but I want to make sure that's not where our "we" ends.
Because I think our relationship is extraordinary,
(NAME) Raisin and Dop-a-dee-dee,
he's given me so much throughout my life
and he means the very world to me.
But (NAME), thanks for getting my boyfriend to smoke again,
despite your best efforts, I still got him to quit,
but if I had to sum up our relationship in one line,
brother, (NAME), I think this would be it:
Soon after, the prince had to travel to some far off country,
but warm and heartfelt e-mails and letters warmed that land,
and although these two lovers shared a long distance relationship,
there's was obviously nothing physical, you understand.

Actually, the children have made it easy for us to come together,
and because of them, our relationship has soared,
and I guess we've had some very worthy blessings,
because we did meet in the house of The Lord.
I will never regret the last two years,
we shared our feelings, they were no longer hid,
I promised I wouldn't put him in a nursing home,
I promised I'd take care of him, and yes, we did.
