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
For all the tears and the rest
And I’ve always saved your poetry
For those years when you forget
I never thought I’d…
So sing with me softly
As the day turns to night
And later I’ll dream
Of paradise with you
I love you and good night
Eva Cassidy
