Taylor

The years go by, but some things stay

Like your sweet and gentle way

Taylor, every time I see you smile

I just want to pause the world a while

You’ve always been so loyal and true

I am so proud of the woman in you

And I love you truly, madly, deeply

More than a simple song could show

You’re a good person with a forgiving heart

And I just needed you to know

When I watch you with your kids, I see

The beautiful mother you grew up to be

I stand in the doorway and watch from afar

Seeing exactly how special you are

You wipe away tears and you quiet their fears

Pouring your love out through all of the years

It fills up my spirit and brings me such peace

To watch you create your own family's peace

And I love you truly, madly, deeply

More than a simple song could show

You’re a good person with a forgiving heart

And I just needed you to know

When I watch you with your kids, I see

The beautiful mother you grew up to be

You never hold onto a shadow of wrong

Your grace is the reason your family is strong

You give and you give, never asking for more

That is the daughter I’ll always adore

'Cause I love you truly, madly, deeply

More than a simple song could show

You’re a good person with a forgiving heart

And I just needed you to know

When I watch you with your kids, I see

The beautiful mother you grew up to be

Taylor, I love you truly, madly, deeply
