Alex

We planned a quiet first date, just a table for two

At the Texas Roadhouse, but my family came too

My dad was there to supervise, they're a lot, I must confess

But you were patient and so kind, you passed the family test

You sat right there and listened, smiling in the booth

I knew you were a keeper, and Alex, that's the truth

Oh, you're always working hard to build this life we share

Always stepping up to help, showing that you care

An amazing daddy to our kids, a steady, gentle soul

You're the only one who makes my spirit whole

When the road is easy, and when the doors are shut

I will always love and choose you, no matter what

In front of the Ferris wheel, you asked me for my hand

We spent the night together, and our real life began

Then came our sweet October, in the autumn sun

You made sure that our wedding day was the perfect one

You don't show your feelings much, you keep them all inside

But at the aisle and in my vows, I saw the tears you cried

Oh, you're always working hard to build this life we share

Always stepping up to help, showing that you care

An amazing daddy to our kids, a steady, gentle soul

You're the only one who makes my spirit whole

When the road is easy, and when the doors are shut

I will always love and choose you, no matter what

You were already a hero to your little girl

But when our baby boy came into the world

You stood inside the delivery room, holding on to me

You cut the cord and broke right down, for only us to see

Watching you become his dad, so tender and so deep

Is the most beautiful memory my heart will always keep

Oh, you're always working hard to build this life we share

Always stepping up to help, showing that you care

An amazing daddy to our kids, a steady, gentle soul

You're the only one who makes my spirit whole

When the road is easy, and when the doors are shut

I will always love and choose you, no matter what
