Cortez

I still remember turning that key

Our first apartment, just you and me

Echoes of laughter bouncing off the walls

We didn't have much, but we had it all

I look in those beautiful eyes and I see

The man who built this whole life next to me

That beautiful smile still takes my breath away

I fall a little deeper every single day

Cortez, you are my everything

The peace and the comfort you always bring

So thoughtful and loving, a generous soul

Your big heart is what makes me whole

From the very first day to whatever comes next

I just want you to know that I love you mostest

Sitting together, letting the music play

Washing the stress of the world away

You hold me close, and I feel so secure

A love so steady, a feeling so pure

And watching you now with the family we made

Seeing the wonderful father you became

It fills up my spirit, it brings me to tears

How you've carried us through all these years

Cortez, you are my everything

The peace and the comfort you always bring

So thoughtful and loving, a generous soul

Your big heart is what makes me whole

From the very first day to whatever comes next

I just want you to know that I love you mostest

Every sacrifice, every gentle touch

I never knew a man could give so much

You’re my rock, my husband, my favorite song

Right here in your arms is where I belong

Cortez, you are my everything

The peace and the comfort you always bring

So thoughtful and loving, a generous soul

Your big heart is what makes me whole

A wonderful father, so truly blessed

Cortez, I love you mostest
