Fortunate Few

A woman and a man, we come together hand in hand
And pledge to love until our dying day
A commitment of the heart is where we have to start
To stay together come what may

We got a house full of life, a husband and a wife
Got a family and a dog or two
And soon there comes a day children's children come to play
We are two of the fortunate few

We are two, we are one
Working to make it work, me and you
And through our ups and downs this old world keeps turnin' round
We are two of the fortunate few

Love that lasts a lifetime, faithful hearts remaining true
Not an easy thing in this faithless time
The laughter and the tears we invest down through the years
Help to strengthen ties that bind

The years go swiftly by and our sorrows multiply
But each new day will bring some joy to view
And still we stay together when so many come apart
We are two of the fortunate few

We are two, we are one
Working to make it work, me and you
And through our ups and downs this old world keeps turnin' round
We are two of the fortunate few
