Ted

It was twenty-twenty-two, a busy moving day

Cardboard boxes stacked along the hallway

You were carrying your life into Alyson Court

I didn't know you were the one I'd fall for

Just a new neighbor settling into the place

But I saw something special the moment I saw your face

Ted, you are so beautiful to me

The kind of soul that sets the shadows free

And I need you to know, through all of your days

You are loved by the Lord, always

Yeah, heaven smiles on exactly who you are

My beautiful man, my steady star

I look at you now and I still catch my breath

There's a quiet kind of grace beating in your chest

Since that first hello by the apartment door

Every single day I just love you more

You carry a light that is so hard to find

A beautiful heart and a beautiful mind

Ted, you are so beautiful to me

The kind of soul that sets the shadows free

And I need you to know, through all of your days

You are loved by the Lord, always

Yeah, heaven smiles on exactly who you are

My beautiful man, my steady star

When the world gets heavy and the roads get steep

I pray you remember this promise I keep

God made you wonderful, He holds you close

You're the answered prayer that I needed most

So here's to the life we've started to build

Since you moved in, my empty spaces filled

I just had to stop and remind you tonight

That you are a blessing, walking in the light

'Cause Ted, you are so beautiful to me

The kind of soul that sets the shadows free

And I need you to know, through all of your days

You are loved by the Lord, always

Yeah, heaven smiles on exactly who you are

My beautiful man, my steady star
