Well I was 19, you were 21, the year we got engaged
Everyone said we were much too young, but we did it anyway
We got the rings for 40 each from a pawnshop down the road
We said our vows and took the leap now 15 years ago
We went dancing in the minefields
We went sailing in the storms
And it was harder than we dreamed
But I believe thats what the promise is for
(Thats what the promise is for)
Well I do are the two most famous last words
The beginning of the end
But to lose your life for another Ive heard is a good place to begin
Cause the only way to find your life is to lay your own life down
And I believe its an easy price for the life that we have found
We went dancing in the minefields
We went sailing in the storms
And it was harder than we dreamed
But I believe thats what the promise is for
(Thats what the promise is for)
So when I lose my way, find me
When I lose loves chains, bind me
At the end of all my faith to the end of all my days
When I forget my name, remind me
Cause we bear the light of the Son of man
So theres nothing left to fear
So Ill walk with you in the shadow lands till the shadows disappear
Cause He promised not to leave us and His promises are true
So in the face of this chaos, baby I can dance with you
So lets go dancing in the minefields, lets go sailing in the storms
Oh, lets go dancing in the minefields, and kicking down the doors
Oh, lets go dancing in the minefields, and sailing in the storms
Oh, this is harder than we dreamed
But I believe thats what the promise is for
Thats what the promise is for
