Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some nights just change your story Before you even know I walked in beside Molly But my eyes were yours to hold That night, you skipped out on dancing Then owned that beach, you stole the show [Chorus] Happy birthday, my forever Let's light the candles one more time Through the storm and through the healing Your hand still fits in mine Behind it all, it's you and me And nothing else matters, not in this lifetime [Verse 2] We took it slow, we knew it mattered Still I smile at that first tickle Cal n Gary, Santiago Ghostland nights we loved so much San Diego, rain and darkness Power out, but candles shone Our fire never gone, cause it's burning our little heart [Chorus] Happy birthday, my forever Let's light the candles one more time Through the storm and through the healing Your hand still fits in mine Behind it all, it's you and me And nothing else matters, not in this lifetime [Bridge] Then I got knocked down hard And you stepped up, took a second job Jalapeña, that's when I knew A heart like yours is rare and true [Verse 3] Three boys later, three dogs later We built a pride of our own And a business from the ground up Amy, how you love our family Is the truest thing I've known We're opposites, but I'm your biggest fan And the glisten on your skin still pulls me in [Chorus] Happy birthday, my forever I'd choose you every time Through the storm and through the healing Your hand still fits in mine Behind it all, it's you and me And nothing else matters, not in this lifetime [Guitar Solo] [Outro] Everywhere I look, something reminds me of her Here's to hope and new beginnings Every year I'm grateful still My ride or die for life, my Jalapeña I always have, I always will
