When Patti and I got together, there was nothing guaranteed. We didn't know where our love
was gonna take us. All we had was the next day, and the shaky faith that
it would lead us somewhere. We had to sneak around,
so I'd meet her on the same bench in Chelsea,
across from the Empire Diner, when I came
into New York City. I'd bring some beer in a paper bag,
and we'd sit and talk. That was the bench
I proposed to her on, and where we brought
our first son, Evan, and carved our initials
into the wood. That was
some 30 years ago now. And marriage still doesn't
bring along its guarantees. Just the faith and love
you have in one another and the next day
was gonna take us. All we had was the next day, and the shaky faith that
