I first learned to smile
because you shared your happiness...
Days of learning,
Years to grow...
Many many happy returns of the day Sweetheart,
Hard to believe that it was just 20 years back...
When all seems to be over and gone
Emotions once strong passed away...
I still remember the day...
when you gently took my hand...
I was going to buy you a card,
but not one was good for you...
Coming up on 57.
Lead the way anew...
Another year has passed.
Others mark the day...
Once in a blue moon comes a rarity in life,
one in which may never have been found...
August sixteenth, two-thousand and nine.
To some, it's just one more day...
It's your birthday, but I don't have a gift
Only a simple message that I can give...
It's your birthday time again
And I just can't imagine...
