Anniversary Song Songtext / Lyric

Today has been a special day

An anniversary; a request

That you play your piano

As the evening lights slowly fade



I never knew I'd get this old, dear

Never had a reason to live so long

And the Lord's been like my shadow

Even since I was grown

No, I never knew it would turn out this way






A birthday with apologies

For all the tears and regrets

And I've always saved your poetry

For all the years when we forget



I never knew I'd get this old, dear

Never had a reason to live so long

And the Lord's been like my shadow

Even since I was grown

No, I never knew it would turn out this way



So sing to me softly

As the days turn to night

And let us wander in Paradise with you

I love you and good night
