There's a golden light that's falling on October number eight
Sixty years of beauty, I just thank my lucky fate
Thirty-nine of them I've spent beside my loving wife
You're the center of my world, the sweetest blessing of my life
ChorusOh Paula, you’re the heartbeat of this home we built together
A loving wife and mother through the sunshine and the weather
With Dani resting at our feet, I look at you and see
The woman who means everything in this whole world to me
Yeah, I just want to say I love you, plain and true
There is nobody else for me but you
Verse 2I watch you in the quiet hours, with Dani close behind
A gentler, kinder spirit would be impossible to find
You poured your love into our kids, you gave them all you had
Just standing by your side has always made me proud and glad
ChorusOh Paula, you’re the heartbeat of this home we built together
A loving wife and mother through the sunshine and the weather
With Dani resting at our feet, I look at you and see
The woman who means everything in this whole world to me
Yeah, I just want to say I love you, plain and true
There is nobody else for me but you
BridgeThirty-nine years can vanish in the blinking of an eye
But the fire we started way back then is never gonna die
So here's to turning sixty, let the celebrations start
You'll always be the girl who went and ran away with my heart
Final ChorusOh Paula, you’re the heartbeat of this home we built together
A loving wife and mother through the sunshine and the weather
With Dani resting at our feet, I look at you and see
The woman who means everything in this whole world to me
Yeah, I just want to say I love you, plain and true
Happy birthday, Paula, I love you
