(Acoustic guitar gentle strumming, soft pedal steel swells)
The sun dips low over the Zambezi bend
I’m countin’ blessings on which I depend
From the river banks where the tall grass sways
You’ve been the light through my darkest days
There’s a thousand faces in this valley deep
But you’re the only promise that I wanna keep
Trina, honey, you’re my heart and soul
You’re the only one who makes me feel whole
Oh, Trina, you mean the world to me
Of all the ladies, you’re the only one I see
Let the whole Zambezi know the truth today
That you’re the only one who takes my breath away
I’ll be there for you through the thick and the thin
You’re where my story and my life begin
My angel, my best friend, my future wife
You’re the sweetest melody in my life
I see the fellas watchin’ as you walk on by
But they don’t know the fire burnin’ in your eye
Let them wonder, let them talk, let them stare
They don’t know the love that we both share
I’m claimin’ you true, yeah, you’re meant for me
Like the river flowin’ to the open sea
It’s a simple love, but it’s honest and strong
You’re the place where I have always belonged
Oh, Trina, you mean the world to me
Of all the ladies, you’re the only one I see
Let the whole Zambezi know the truth today
That you’re the only one who takes my breath away
I’ll be there for you through the thick and the thin
You’re where my story and my life begin
My angel, my best friend, my future wife
You’re the sweetest melody in my life
I promise to stand by your side every day
To chase all the shadows of doubt far away
In this big world, I’ve found my home in your arms
Sheltered forever away from all harms
Oh, Trina, you mean the world to me
Of all the ladies, you’re the only one I see
Let the whole Zambezi know the truth today
That you’re the only one who takes my breath away
I’ll be there for you through the thick and the thin
You’re where my story and my life begin
My angel, my best friend, my future wife
You’re the sweetest melody in my life
Yeah, you’re my angel
My future wife
Trina, you’re my life
(Fiddle fades out into the sunset)
