Livin' On Love

This is a picture of me and Jake at my last Carolina football game as a student. Gotta love him in his shades! He's just too cute! :)

Livin' On Love by Alan Jackson

Two young people without a thing
Say some vows and spread their wings
Settle down with just what they need
Livin on love

She dont care 'bout whats in style
She just likes the way he smiles
It takes more than marble and tile
Livin on love

Livin on love, buyin on time
Without somebody nothing aint worth a dime
Just like an old fashioned story book rhyme
Livin on love
It sounds simple thats what you're thinkin'
But love can walk through fire without blinkin'
It doesnt take much when you get enough
Livin' on love

Two old people without a thing
Children gone but still they sing
Side by side in that front porch swing
Livin on love
He cant see anymore
And she can barely sweep the floor
Hand in hand they'll walk through that door
Just livin on love

Livin on love, buyin on time
Without somebody nothing aint worth a dime
Just like an old fashioned story book rhyme
Livin on love
It sounds simple thats what you're thinkin'
But love can walk through fire without blinkin'
It doesnt take much when you get enough
Livin' on love
No it doesnt take much when you get enough
Livin' on love

I put these song lyrics up today because this has really been on my mind. Call us crazy, but in less than 2 months we'll be married. We will then truly be "livin' on love". The thought of it scares me to death... but it's like I keep telling myself: If we make it through this we'll make it through anything! (I know we'll make it. I'm not naive- I just know that Jake and I take this commitment seriously and this is the only time we will get married... we're in it for the long-haul, so to speak.)
