Songtext von Anniversary Song

Today has been a special 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 A birthday with apologies (oh oh oh) For all the tears and regrets (oh oh oh) And I've always saved your poetry (oh oh oh) For these years when you forget (oh oh oh) 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 So sing with me softly (oh oh oh) As the day turns to night (oh oh oh) And later I'll dream (oh oh oh) Of paradise with you (oh oh oh) I love you and good night
