50th birthday surprise

And I just wanted to say Happy 60th 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.

You make me smile by just opening doors,
although I guess this should come as no surprise,
and the sincerity is unlike anything I've encountered,
and I see it there, every time I look into your eyes.

Ever since (PLACE) I've been attracted
and I know that came as a shock, a surprise,
but I know it wasn't the margarita raising my blood pressure,
it was your look, your warmth, your eyes.

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.

But we managed to get through that year,
and the next year you moved down the street from me,
you bought me a puppy, (NAME), for my birthday,
and truly, that was the best gift there ever will be.

Because they've sprinkled sunlight in your hair,
and they've given you the bluest of blue eyes,
and you've got your father's good looks,
but of course, that should come as no surprise.

Because you?ve always been so very beautiful,
but I guess this comes as no surprise,
you took our breath away the day you were born,
and you?ve always been our sweet little dark eyes.

You're three years older than me, I like that,
and you're about 5'6, with beautiful big brown eyes,
you've a stunning body, a flat stomach, a beautiful ass,
although I guess this should come as no surprise.

And what is unfolding before us today,
really should come as no surprise,
because all this was planned so long ago,
sadly, today's telescopes also have blind eyes.

So I think we'll finish by saying Happy 60th Birthday,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to staying a big kid, for evermore.

And I did just want to say (NAME) Happy 40th Birthday,
I'm so looking forward to the future and our time together,
but in the meantime, just know that you have our love,
and I know that love will last eternally, forever and ever.

It's just our way of saying "Happy 60th Birthday",
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, Mom, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to cruising through life, 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.

And we just wanted to say Happy 50th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, Mom and Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to at least another fifty more.

And we just wanted to say Happy 50th Anniversary,
I guess that's really what these words are for,
here's to you, Mom and Dad, you're truly wonderful,
and here's to your everlasting love, for evermore.

She also taught me how to shop for and cook spaghetti and meatballs,
she took me to the Feather Club for dinner and dancing on my birthday,
she always knew what you needed and it was often very simple,
and that one line leaves so much left to say:

And I know we complained a bit at the time,
but working in the school holidays made us realize,
and those days have formed the basis of my work ethic today,
although I guess by now, this comes as no surprise.

And I just wanted to say Happy 27th 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.

I'll never forget the restaurant,
and I'll never forget your look of surprise,
you didn't say anything, your expression spoke volumes,
there was just this amazing excitement, there in your eyes.

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!

(NAME) was my 18th birthday present from his room-mate,
on the card, it said "too big to wrap, but I know you'll love him",
and the following day I told my parents I would marry (NAME),
and now I can say, 39 glorious years later, that was no teenage whim.

I wanted to say "I love you",
but I guess by now, this is no surprise,
but one thing I've learned for certain,
they're right, when they say "first love never dies".

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.

We'll never forget (NAME) and (NAME) boxing in the backyard,
that was the same backyard where I helped to rake the leaves,
we went shopping and then onto lunch for my birthday,
these are the moments for which my heart grieves.

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.

I'll never forget our engagement dinner,
but your proposal got delayed by my surprise,
so you proposed to me at 3 am in the morning,
of course I said "yes" (after I'd wiped the sleep from my eyes).

I remember the time she woke me up by yelling,
she knew that a lay in bed was something that I would like,
she was screaming at me to get my stuff off the porch,
but when I got there, there was my brand new birthday bike.

I remember the very first time we met,
(but how we met will remain our surprise),
but I knew as soon as I saw you,
I could see the real "you", it was there in your eyes.
