I caught a glimpse of her
Out in the garden
The soft sunset lit up her face
It took me back to the first time
I saw her
Seems like yesterday
That quick easy smile
Stopped me dead in my tracks
When her brown eyes
Took my heart for a spin
She's prettier now
Than she's ever been
And she was beautiful..back then
I remember the time
I was pacing in panic
On a bitter cold gray winter morn
I still hear the doctor
Sayin' take a deep breath, son
By the way, your son's been born
I rushed to her side...I watched in awe
When the nurse brought
Her new baby in
She's prettier now
Than she's ever been
And she was beautiful..back then
Try to say what she means to me
Don't know where to start
Something's missing inside of me
Any time we're apart
I caught a glimpse of me
There in the mirror
Time has put gray in my hair
I'm lookin' older - she just looks better
But you know, she wouldn't care
She's never been concerned with looks
She knows beauty comes from within
She's prettier now
Than she's ever been
And she was beautiful..back then
I love her more now than I ever did
And she was the world...back then
