I'd also like to say Happy 75th Birthday,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, <NAME>, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our everlasting love, for evermore.
Because I've tried to take very good care of you,
and in return, you've taken very good care of me,
just know that I am totally devoted to you,
you've made my world a great place to be.
I wouldn't trade you for anything in the world,
all the tea in China or all the fishes in the sea,
because I love you so very, very much,
you've made my world a great place to be.
I couldn't imagine my world without you,
and you've certainly made that world a great place to be,
and no matter how busy I get in my daily dealings,
I always remember just how much you really mean to me.
And you worked long and hard all your life,
you made a great success out of Gotofast,
and I?m so sorry that you and Mom separated,
but I guess some things are not meant to last.
We will love and support you always,
we'll pick you up if you happen to scrape your knee,
but in the meantime, we just wanted to say Happy Graduation,
and thanks (NAME), you make the world a great place to be.
So Happy 75th Birthday,
That's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), you're truly wonderful,
and here's to our love, for evermore.
However, it wasn't shining so brightly on your birthday,
if I recall (you won't remember), you were twenty one,
so wasted, you had to be carried up the stairs by a friend,
that night, certainly, your drinking days were done.
I think of our honeymoon and I always grin,
in truth, a great big smile breaks across my face,
5 days, you, glorious weather, whale watching, seafood,
you see, you've made my world such a wonderful place.
Because our love will be everlasting,
it?s something that is eternal and will last forever,
and that gives my soul great comfort,
I know that we'll always be together.
You had each other, then you had me,
and now together, we have everything,
and I'm so looking forward to our future,
and to the great times that it'll bring.
I remember the Campari ads;
"drink this and have a great time",
"drink this and be beautiful",
"drink this if you need a rhyme".
I appreciate having you close by to ask advice,
and for the record, you?re great to spend time with,
and this feels like the longest you?ve ever been away,
and now I?m struggling, I?m struggling to live.
And I know your father wasn?t quite like that,
in truth, he never killed the dragon that lived inside,
but from selling newspapers, to the Vietnam war,
I know that you have been a great source of pride.
You're truly great at everything you do,
and you're a fantastic person to be around,
it's marvelous to be living my life with you,
my love for you simply knows no limit, no abound.
I also wanted to say "Happy Birthday",
but there's a few other words that need to be said,
because I know I'm a hot tempered guy,
and some times my tongue gets easily led.
You're always been a great support when I need you,
you've helped me face my dragons (and we've won),
your love has been my inspiration, my light,
in every way, you've been like my morning sun.
And I also wanted to Happy 80th Birthday,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, (NAME), grandmother, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to at least another eighty more!
You lead at home as well as in the business,
and that leadership has always brightly shone,
so just know that I love you very much,
and our great times together are not done and gone.
Hey, Dad, I know, at times, life can be great,
and then at others, it can be quite cruel and unkind,
and because of your recent battles,
well, they?ve brought quite a few things to mind.
You're so strong in your convictions,
you're a member of National Honor Society,
and we just wanted to thank you for being you,
you've made our world's a great place to be.
