Patrick

Lookin' back at how our story started

Spring was blooming, everything was new

A double celebration on a Sunday

Mother's Day, but I was celebrating you

You blew the candles out on our first evening

I didn't know the joy that you would bring

Patrick, from that very first hello

You gave my heart a brand new way to grow

'Cause you're so loving, you're so caring, you're so true

And I just want to pour my soul right back to you

So when the shadows fall and you feel all alone

Just reach out for my hand, let me be your home

I will never leave you, I'll stay by your side

Patrick, I am right here for the ride

My husband and my shelter in the storm

You always keep my spirit safe and warm

But even strong men need a place to rest

When the heavy weight of life is on your chest

I see the quiet moments when you fade

Lost inside the sacrifices you have made

But you don't have to carry it on your own

I'll be the steady peace that you have known

'Cause you're so loving, you're so caring, you're so true

And I just want to pour my soul right back to you

So when the shadows fall and you feel all alone

Just reach out for my hand, let me be your home

I will never leave you, I'll stay by your side

Patrick, I am right here for the ride

If the room gets dark, if the night gets cold

I'll be the one to wrap you in my soul

Through every single year since that first date

I thank the stars above for our sweet fate

You'll never look around and find an empty space

I'm planted right beside you in this place

'Cause you're so loving, you're so caring, you're so true

And I just want to pour my soul right back to you

So when the shadows fall and you feel all alone

Just reach out for my hand, let me be your home

I will never leave you, I'll stay by your side

Patrick, my husband, my endless pride
