Into A King

It started harmless enough
Animal infatuation
But something within it prevailed

You were a sweet amalgamation
Of all the parts i have loved
The hottest slippery slope

And out came depth
And out comes healing
Out comes friendship unlike any i have known

Happy anniversary baby
You've gone from a prince into a king
Happy anniversary darling
I've gone from a maiden to a queen

Continued and softened us up
Our rocks are hewn by this water of love
And steadfast: our pinky swear

And out comes fun
Out comes relief
Out comes championing unlike any i have known

Happy anniversary baby
You've gone from a prince into a king
Happy anniversary darling
I've gone from a maiden to a queen

And how far have we come
How far we've yet to go
Til we're gray great grandparents
Til we're one tiny little wrinkle
I say i do i do i do

Happy anniversary baby
You've gone from a prince into a king
Happy anniversary darling
I've gone from a maiden to a queen

And so, we'll traipse from paper through diamonds
A family tree's genesis
Our fingers t'wining together

And out comes ever
And out comes alchemy
And out comes drooling on your chest

Happy anniversary baby
You've gone from a prince into a king
Happy anniversary darling
I've gone from a maiden to a queen
