Reba Nell McEntire (born on March 28, 1955) is a Grammy Award-winning singer and one of the best-selling country music performers of all time, known for her pop-tinged ballads that include 22 #1 hits. She has issued 29 albums, with more than 45 million records sold as of 2006. With a contract to Mercury Records, McEntire began her professional career with a hard honky tonk sound, which didn't go over well at a time when country music was dominated by outlaw country artists like Willie Nelson and David Allan Coe. "Three Sheets in the Wind"/"I'd Really Love to See You Tonight" became her first charting single in 1978 (see 1978 in music), and was followed by the bigger hit "(You Lift Me) Up to Heaven" (1980, 1980 in music). With more pop-oriented balladry, McEntire began to expand her audience during the early 1980s, signing to MCA Records in 1984 (see 1984 in music) and becoming one of the best-selling country artists of all time, releasing three volumes of greatest hits collections.

I remember the first time I held you all night long.
Well were still here now.
But where have all the years gone?
Holding yu this way tonight.
Its easy to see why.
Chorus
All this time.
We held on to each other.
We knew we had to be strong.
All this time.
Through the tears and the laughter.
Its still forever after all this time.
In the fast movin world.
Love is made and just thrown away.
But weve always kept the promises that we made.
Who would of thought you and me?
Would still be here where we said we would be.
Repeat chorus twice
