Vince

Thirty-nine years ago, the moment we met

I knew you were the one I’d make mine forever

It felt just like coming home, a love perfectly set

Through the good and the hard days, holding together

You work twelve-hour shifts, five or six days a week

Then you walk through that door, giving all of your time

If something is broken, you fix it for me

You're the rock of this house, and I'm so glad you're mine

Happy birthday, Vince, my heart and my home

Underneath this roof, we never eat alone

Supper's waiting hot, sitting side by side

Look at the beautiful life you provide

I’d still choose you, through every endeavor

I love you, Vince, always and forever

At the end of the day, when the working is done

You set your boots by the chair, waiting on the sun

Ready for the morning light, you sacrifice so much

And look at what we made from your gentle, steady touch

Three grown sons who fill our hearts with pride

Two daughters-in-law standing right by their side

Three handsome grandsons, two granddaughters so sweet

Because of your love, our family is complete

Happy birthday, Vince, my heart and my home

Underneath this roof, we never eat alone

Supper's waiting hot, sitting side by side

Look at the beautiful life you provide

I’d still choose you, through every endeavor

I love you, Vince, always and forever

The table gets crowded on dinners and holidays

But we always make room, that's just our way

I still think about us, fishing in the dark

Just two young kids with a fire and a spark

You're the reason this love has so much room to grow

And as the years pass, I just want you to know

Happy birthday, Vince, my heart and my home

Underneath this roof, we never eat alone

Supper's waiting hot, sitting side by side

Look at the beautiful life you provide

My forever started the day I met you

Always and forever, I'm still choosing you
