Today has been a special day |
| [00:13.43] |
An anniversary, a request |
| [00:18.78] |
That you play your piano |
| [00:26.44] |
As the evening sun slowly sets |
| [01:36.46][00:31.64] |
I never thought I'd get this old dear |
| [01:44.11][00:39.20] |
Never had a reason to live so long |
| [01:49.32][00:44.49] |
And the Lord's been like my shadow |
| [01:57.27][00:52.47] |
Even when I was wrong |
| [02:01.51][00:57.14] |
No I never thought it would turn out this way |
| [01:10.38] |
A birthday with apologies |
| [01:18.19] |
For all the tears and regrets |
| [01:23.63] |
And I've always saved your poetry |
| [01:31.40] |
For these years when you forget |
| [02:14.78] |
So sing with me softly |
| [02:22.50] |
As the day turns to night |
| [02:27.40] |
And later I'll dream of paradise with you |
| [02:37.32] |
I love you and good night |
