The Day You Walked In Singing

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The day we met was just routine, An interview, or so it seemed, But fate had bigger plans in store, A quiet knock on heaven's door. You walked in singing, soft and true, And somehow I just knew it was you. [Chorus] Here's to the love we're building strong, Here's to the years, the right and wrong, Through every storm, through every test, You've been my shelter, you've been my rest. Happy birthday to the one who stayed, The brightest light I've ever made. [Verse 2] Katherine made our world complete, Adam, Rebecca at our feet, You opened up your arms so wide, And called me family, called me bride's pride. Your songs were stages, mine were grind, But somehow our two worlds aligned. [Chorus] Here's to the love we're building strong, Here's to the years, the right and wrong, Through every storm, through every test, You've been my shelter, you've been my rest. Happy birthday, Karen, my own, The brightest love I've ever known. [Bridge] When I was weak, you held my hand, You stayed when I could barely stand. No words could ever say enough, For all your patience, all your love. [Verse 3] Now we are growing, side by side, Two hearts, one tide, no need to hide, Our children grown, our story long, And every chapter sounds like song. Karen, my comfort, my refuge true, There's nothing I won't give to you. [Chorus] Here's to the love we're building strong, Here's to the years, the right and wrong, Through every storm, through every test, You've been my shelter, you've been my rest. Happy birthday, Karen, my dear, I'm thankful for another year. [Outro] Sing on, my love, sing soft and free, Happy birthday, Karen, from me.
