Half a Century Side by Side

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Fifty years of morning light, Coffee shared, the world made right. Out on the patio we'd sit, Watching sunsets, grateful for it. Two hearts that learned to weather time, A steady faith, a love divine. [Chorus] Oh, what a life, what a beautiful ride, Half a century standing side by side. Blessed and grateful, hand in hand, Building a home the good Lord planned. Through every season, come what may, Love only deepens, day by day. [Verse 2] Aruba winters, warm and blue, Santa Ana's pews we knew. Long cruises out across the sea, Just where we always dreamed we'd be. And Paul, you held her close each night, The keeper of her heart's own light. [Chorus] Oh, what a life, what a beautiful ride, Half a century standing side by side. Blessed and grateful, hand in hand, Building a home the good Lord planned. Through every season, come what may, Love only deepens, day by day. [Bridge] Eric, Adam, PJ, Caitlin too, Four bright blessings born from you. And grandchildren, a shining ten, God's love returning again and again. [Verse 3] From St. Andre to old St. Ann's, You knelt together, joined your hands. Emily, Sadie, Luca's grin, Aria's laugh, the whole loving kin. Oh Paul, this family that you grew Is the sweetest thing that love can do. [Chorus] Oh, what a life, what a beautiful ride, Half a century standing side by side. Blessed and grateful, hand in hand, Building a home the good Lord planned. Through every season, come what may, Love only deepens, day by day. [Outro] Fifty years and still you shine, Two hearts entwined, forever thine. Blessed be this love so true, Happy anniversary to you.
