Gleam In My Eye

Lyrics

[Verse 1] The years have quietly slipped away Like morning light on fields of hay I've watched the seasons come and go And oh, the things a heart can know There's one who made my whole world turn A love no time could ever burn [Chorus] Through challenges and joy you will always be my baby boy No matter how the days may fly You're still that little gleam in my eye With a giving, loving heart so true There's not a day I don't love you [Verse 2] Oh Steven, how you make me laugh That funny, kind and gentle half You grew up tall, you grew up right And carried kindness like a light The finest father I have known Look at the family you've grown [Chorus] Through challenges and joy you will always be my baby boy No matter how the days may fly You're still that little gleam in my eye With a giving, loving heart so true There's not a day I don't love you [Bridge] You gave me grandbabies to hold More precious than the purest gold And though my hair has turned to gray I'll love you more with every day [Verse 3] So here's your birthday wish from me A truth as steady as can be When I am just a whispered song Know that my love was always strong Steven, however far you roam My heart will always call you home [Chorus] Through challenges and joy you will always be my baby boy No matter how the days may fly You're still that little gleam in my eye With a giving, loving heart so true There's not a day I don't love you [Outro] Happy birthday, precious one My forever, my baby son You will always be my baby boy
