Thanks for believing in us, in our humble start,
In the Lagos ghetto, where love was our only art,
You saw the potential, in our love so true,
And stood by me, through all we’d go through.
Your family doubted, our ability to thrive,
But you, my love, you saw a future alive,
You saw beyond the struggles, the strife and the pain,
And believed in us, like a sweet, sweet refrain.
From the ghetto streets, to the island’s golden shore,
Our love has journeyed, through so much more,
Through trials and tribulations, we’ve made our way,
And now we’re living, the dreams of yesterday.
I remember the days, of uncertainty and fear,
But you, my love, you wiped away my tears,
You held my hand, through the darkest of nights,
And guided me, to the light of your loving sight.
Your family’s concerns, were valid, I confess,
But you, my love, you saw the best in us, I guess,
You saw the fire, that burned deep in our souls,
And fanned the flames, to make our love whole.
Now we’re standing, in this beautiful place,
Living the dreams, of most Nigerian couples’ face,
We’ve made it through, the struggles and the strife,
And our love’s shining, like a beacon of life.
So thank you, my love, for believing in me,
For seeing the potential, in our love’s destiny,
You’re the reason, I am who I am today,
Forever grateful, in every way.
Our love’s an eventful, journey so far,
But with you by my side, we’ll travel near and far,
Together forever, through life’s joys and fears,
In your love, my heart finds solace, through all the years.
