"Written in the Stars" by Paul Garr, LaDena Garr & Chris Sligh

I've always wanted a love song written for me. My husband Paul is not musical, so this is how this project came to be; I've collected cards and comments that Paul has said to me. I knew they were powerful and poetic. I also used the words from our wedding vows. It was easy to collect many phrases that flowed into song lyrics. I organized them and shared them with the amazingly talented singer/songwriter/producer Chris Sligh. His melody, voice and piano are a home run! I love this song, and it will always remind me of Paul's genuine love and appreciation for me. Wow, I'm truly blessed!

Lyrics
I have never met
a woman so exquisite
You throw me a smile
that starts and never quits
From that very first
time that we kissed
I felt the kind of love
You only hope could exist
You don't get to our age
Without trials and heartaches
That's why I truly see all you offer me

I don't question it
or question if
You're anything but meant to be
I fell for you in memories
and I keep falling hard
So I'll remind you so you don't forget it
Cause I meant it when I said it
Every word
through every hurt
'Til death do us part
'Cause our love, our love,
is written in the stars

I have never talked
with anyone this way
You embrace what I give
and I'm not afraid
To show you who I am
and who I want to be
There's not a doubt in my mind girl, I believe

I don't question it
or question if
You're anything but meant to be
I fell for you in memories
and I keep falling hard
So I'll remind you so you don't forget it
Cause I meant it when I said it
Every word
through every hurt
'Til death do us part
'Cause our love, our love,
is written in the stars

You don't get to our age
without trials and heartaches
It's why I clearly see
all you offer me

I don't question it
or question if
You're anything but meant to be
I fell for you in memories
and I keep falling hard
So I'll remind you so you don't forget it
Cause I meant it when I said it
Every word
through every hurt
'Til death do us part
'Cause our love, our love,
is written in the stars,
written in the stars
