Anniversary Song

Today has been a special day

An anniversary, a request

That you play your piano

As the evening sun slowly sets

[00:31.64]I never thought I'd get this old dear

[00:39.20]Never had a reason to live so long

[00:44.49]And the Lord's been like my shadow

[00:52.47]Even when I was wrong

[00:57.14]No I never thought it would turn out this way

A birthday with apologies

For all the tears and regrets

And I've always saved your poetry

For these years when you forget

So sing with me softly

As the day turns to night

And later I'll dream of paradise with you

I love you and good night
