Check their character before you begin
Their future plans and where they've been
Making sure they have nothing to hide
Rough roads are not an enjoyable ride
Divorce is painful and causes hate
No room for error in choosing your mate
'Till death do you part," doth say the Lord
Trouble and sorrow you can't afford
Life will be fun if your choice is right
There won't be a reason to fuss or fight
Words of kindness will go a long way
And should be expressed everyday
Words, "I love you" is only a start
Genuine love comes from the heart
Just living together love is not real
Wedding vows is what seals the deal
Allow each other space to move about
Trusting each other having no doubts
Love will be forever and never leave
If both are honest and never deceive
As you get older your love will grow
By learning to say, "yes" and not just "no"
Bodies will change but love never will
Age cannot change the love you feel
