birthday if today

You see, you never hold a grudge,
and I?ve never really said just how wonderful you are,
but if my love for you were a distance,
well, then it?d be further than the furthest star.

Because within three months we'd decided to marry,
thank God for too much alcohol and a missed train,
because if you asked me to marry you tomorrow,
I would do all this, without hesitation, all over again.

Look, I'm sorry I was a bit of a "stinker",
but it was a little cramped on the inside,
and just like Dad, I'm a bit of a fidget,
but I couldn't have picked a finer man - even if I'd tried.

And I will also always be there for you,
if you ever need a shoulder or a helping hand,
divided we shall fall and be conquered,
but together and united we will make a stand.

What if my hair falls out?

And I?ve never felt prouder marching by your side,
and I?ve worn your dog tags every day since then,
and if you ever ask me to march with you,
I?ll say, without hesitation, ?yes, where and when?.

Hello, my wonderful father,
my heart is full and I have a lot to say,
and I don?t think I?ll get a better opportunity,
after all, today, well, it is Father's Day.

So I just wanted to say thank you,
that's what these words are for,
just know that I love you today,
and that I'll love you for evermore.

I have so much love, respect and admiration for you,
and every day, you prove just how much you truly care,
and if I could visualize the perfect husband,
well, my mind would conjure up a picture of you standing there.

And July really can't come quick enough,
because then we'll be together, this time for good!
and if I could travel forward in a time machine,
well, you know that certainly I would.

And you can have the biggest house in the world,
and you can have a holiday in perfect paradise,
but if you can't find the time for love,
I'll tell you, it's just not worth the price.

Your sister and brother are so proud of you too,
you fill all our hearts with this enormous pride,
and we all know we couldn't have chosen finer,
we know we couldn't - even if we'd tried.

I remember the Campari ads;
"drink this and have a great time",
"drink this and be beautiful",
"drink this if you need a rhyme".

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.

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.

And I just wanted to say "I love you",
I've never really said just how wonderful you are,
but if my love for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star.

To put it simply, you have been my rock
a rock that sings Broadway shows with me in the car,
and did you know, if my love for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star?

Of course, we've had our share of ups and downs,
but life is rarely, if ever, a rose filled dream,
but through it all, we've stuck together,
we've proved to the world we truly are a team.

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 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.

Because I want you to know that I care about you,
I've never really said just how wonderful you are,
but if my like for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star (or spa).

Because he is such a perfect individual,
and truly, he is our dreams personified,
and I know he couldn't have chosen a finer mother,
I know he couldn't - even if he'd tried.

Do you know how I truly idolize you?
I think of you and my chest swells with pride,
because I know I couldn?t have picked a finer father,
I know I couldn?t ? even if I?d tried.

But thankfully, our curtains didn't close,
and I've never really said just how wonderful you are,
but if my love for you were a distance,
then it would be further than the furthest star.

I know that we've both owned our fair share of tragedy,
and I also know it's never easy the second time around,
but today I am still amazed at the timing and the fate,
and I can't believe the pure and true happiness that we've found.

So, please raise your glasses,
and find a new circle of friends,
because if you're not that careful,
the gutter is where your journey ends.

You have lived the meaning "for better and for worse",
you couldn't have been more committed, even if you'd tried,
and when I think of you, strange things happen,
my eyes well up, my chest swells and fills with pride.
