Lyrics

Verse

Derek and Sif still dance tonight,

Sixty-two years in gentle flight.

Through whispered laughs and knowing eyes,

A love that’s grown, serene and wise.

Chorus

Sixty-two years, still holding tight,

Same slow song, same soft light.

From two hearts to a family tree,

Derek and Sif—our forever melody.

Verse

Two sons raised with patience and grit,

Four grandchildren’s laughter brightly lit.

Coffee shared at break of dawn,

Old jokes told, and life goes on.

Chorus

Sixty-two years, still holding tight,

Same slow song, same soft light.

From two hearts to a family tree,

Derek and Sif—our forever melody.

Bridge

Seasons turned like vinyl's crackle,

Worn dance floors tell the tale.

Every choice, each quiet day,

Love’s quiet triumph prevails.

Chorus

Sixty-two years, still holding tight,

Same slow song, same soft light.

From two hearts to a family tree,

Derek and Sif—our forever melody.

Outro

(Instrumental fade with trumpet or sax solo)

whispered

Choosing you... every day.
