Eugene

You brought your tools and you fixed my door

Made the hinges swing so true

That very first night that we fell asleep

I found a haven next to you

Eugene, you’ve always been my steady shield

Keeping out the bitter cold

You've got hands that can build the world

And a tender heart of gold

Through the ups and downs of the passing years

We’ve walked through every kind of weather

You fabricate a life for us

And you hold it all together

I know I don't always let it show

But I need to make it clear and true

I appreciate everything you do

Oh Eugene, I truly love you

You take the pieces of a broken thing

And you weld them back into place

You always make me feel so safe and sound

In your protective, warm embrace

When the road was rough and the shadows fell

You never let me face the night

You built a fortress around this home

And you filled it up with light

Through the ups and downs of the passing years

We’ve walked through every kind of weather

You fabricate a life for us

And you hold it all together

I know I don't always let it show

But I need to make it clear and true

I appreciate everything you do

Oh Eugene, I truly love you

Sometimes the words get caught in my throat

And I let the moments slip away

I keep my gratitude locked inside

When I have so much to say

But every drop of sweat you give for us

Never goes unseen

You are the anchor of my life

My wonderful husband, Eugene

Through the ups and downs of the passing years

We’ve walked through every kind of weather

You fabricate a life for us

And you hold it all together

I know I don't always let it show

But I need to make it clear and true

I appreciate everything you do

Oh Eugene, I truly love you

Yes Eugene, I truly love you
