Anniversary Song

Today has been a special day
An anniversary, a request
That you play your piano
As the evening sun slowly setsI 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 wayA birthday with apologies
For all the tears and regrets
And I've always saved your poetry
For these years when you forgetI 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
