From the moment I met you,
You made my life complete.
This wave of pure devotion,
Has swept me off my feet.

And tonight when we kissed,
You still took my breath away.
It goes without saying,
But I'll say it anyway

[Chorus]
The vows go unbroken, and you still know I do.
Love, keep and honor, always true to you.

Though I have been tempted,
Oh I have never strayed.
I'd die before I'd damage,
This union we have made.

[Chorus]

I knew from the first, that for better or worse,
I'd stand by you all my life.

And the vows go unbroken, and you still know I do.
Love, keep and honor, always true to you.
Love, keep and honor, always true to you.
