Mike

I was pounding the pavement, just running through town

You were driving the fire truck, slowing it down

That was the moment you first caught my eye

Now twenty whole years have gone flashing right by

You've always been patient, encouraging, kind

The most compassionate partner that someone could find

You're a firefighter, an officer, a business of your own

The hardest working man that I have ever known

But no matter how heavy the uniform gets

You always make time for us, with zero regrets

Through the chaos and calls, you are steady and true

Mike, I'm so lucky to share life with you

We’ve paddled the kayaks and pedaled the bikes

Conquered the mountains on steep summer hikes

Halfway up the summit, we're catching our breath

Staring at the trail, laughing ourselves to death

"Where'd all these rocks come from?" we always joke

With you by my side, every worry goes up in smoke

You're a firefighter, an officer, a business of your own

The hardest working man that I have ever known

But no matter how heavy the uniform gets

You always make time for us, with zero regrets

Through the chaos and calls, you are steady and true

Mike, I'm so lucky to share life with you

Every race that I run, every path that I take

You're cheering me on for encouragement's sake

You support every dream, every finish line crossed

With you in my corner, I'm never quite lost

Through the sirens and schedules, the stress and the grind

You leave all the weight of the workday behind

'Cause you're a firefighter, an officer, a business of your own

The hardest working man that I have ever known

But no matter how heavy the uniform gets

You always make time for us, with zero regrets

Through the chaos and calls, you are steady and true

Happy twenty years, Mike, I'm so in love with you
