Still marching with you

Intro

(Oh, Karen)

Yeah, my love...

Verse

Cadets in maroon and orange, side by side,

Virginia Tech summers, your smile caught my eye.

We traded salutes, dreams in our boots,

Signed up for the Army, you and I.

Drills in the dawn, marches through the rain,

Built our love stronger than the Virginia plain.

Pre-chorus

But orders came callin', pulled us miles apart,

Nights on the phone, holdin' your voice to my heart.

Years of goodbyes, waitin' for that flight,

Through it all, baby, you were my light.

Chorus

Karen, you're the glue, holdin' this family tight,

Keepin' us straight, makin' wrong feel right.

From battlefields to home fires, you've been my home,

Oh, Karen, my forever, you're never alone.

(You're the glue, yeah) You're the glue...

Verse

Now the kids are flyin', three hearts we raised strong,

Almost empty nesters, singin' our own song.

We chase the horizons, hand in hand we roam,

Alps kissin' the sky, Dolomites callin' us home.

Lakes like glass mirrors, peaks sharp and grand,

Your laugh in the wind, best sight in the land.

Pre-chorus

No more deployments, just us and the road,

Retirement whisperin', liftin' the load.

Pack up the suitcase, let's go wander free,

Every mile with you feels like victory.

Chorus

Karen, you're the glue, holdin' this family tight,

Keepin' us straight, makin' wrong feel right.

From battlefields to home fires, you've been my home,

Oh, Karen, my forever, you're never alone.

(You're the glue, yeah) You're the glue...

You're the glue...

Break

Through the chaos and calm, you've mapped out our way,

Lists on the counter, turnin' night into day.

Here's to more adventures, sunsets we chase,

My captain, my compass, in every embrace.

Chorus

Karen, you're the glue, holdin' this family tight,

Keepin' us straight, makin' wrong feel right.

From battlefields to home fires, you've been my home,

Oh, Karen, my forever, you're never alone.

(You're the glue) You're the glue...

Yeah, my Karen, you're the glue...
