On a cold December night I called your name
In the Chicago Mist you walked into frame
I saw through the crowd you dancing on a table
Our eyes locked together, we started this fable
Some people said our love wouldn't last
I think the past 23 years have been a blast!
I look back now and, with a cheeky grin
wave at those people who said we wouldn't win!
When the sun sets on the Chicago night
I look in your eyes, they shine so bright
The love we have was something new
that December night I knew it was you!
Our love grew stronger , day by day
there was no denying that October Day
We ate pasta and cheese, I got on my knees
to ask for your hand with trembling ease!
When the sun sets on the Chicago night
I look in your eyes, they shine so bright
The love we have was something new
that December night I knew it was you!
The year went by, the plans grew stronger
Your idea of a fairytale made our story longer
The Castle was booked, the vicar did bless
You just had to turn up to give me a ‘YES’
When the sun sets on the Chicago night
I look in your eyes, they shine so bright
The love we have was something new
that December night I knew it was you!
Now 23 years later, we are just as happy
We have all we wanted, even a nappy
Our home is, bright and full of laughter
we have found our happily, ever after
When the sun sets on the Chicago night
I look in your eyes, they shine so bright
The love we have was something new
that December night I knew it was you!
The love we have is strong and sure
don’t forget what we did it all for
When the sun sets on the Chicago night
I look in your eyes, they shine so bright
The love we have was something new
that December night I knew it was you!
