"1222 Bay Oak Street" lyrics

From the first time
The first time I took your hand in school
You made me feel the words that I could never say
You were my first for it all
My everything

And then the first night
The first night we heard our newborn cry
In our one-bedroom house on Bay Oaks Street
We would stay up with the kids on Halloween

Oh, how in awe and afraid
But, oh, how amazing it was
That I got to spend my life with you

If you're wondering
Is there any getting over this
I will never fall in love again
And I won't even try
Take it in
There will never be another this
I will never fall in love again
And I won't even try
I won't even try

You were all mine
Our wedding finger tattooed thirty-five
Years I felt lucky to be by your side
You were my first for it all
My everything

There's a reason that you're gone
A need for God to take you away
I imagine you're an angel with a hundred thousand souls to help him save
And still I pray when I lay down to sleep

Oh, how in awe and afraid
And, oh, how amazing it was
That I got to spend my life with you

If you're wondering
Is there any getting over this
I will never fall in love again
And I won't even try
Take it in
There will never be another this
I will never fall in love again
And I won't even try
I won't even try

Yeah, I won't even try
Yeah, I won't even try
Yeah, I won't even try
Yeah, I won't even try
