Anniversary Song

Today has been a speical day an anniversary, a request that you play your piano as the evening sun slowly sets I never thought I'd get this old dear never had a reason to live so long and the lord's been like my shadow even when I was wrong no I never thought it would turn out this way the birthday with apologies for all the tears and regrets and I've always saved your poetry for these years when you forget I never thought I'd get this old dear never had a reason to live so long and the lords been like my shadow even when I was wrong no I never thought it would turn out this way so sing with me softly as the day turns to night and later I'll dream of paradise with you I love you and goodnight
