San Francisco Bells, Ocean Miles

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some love is quiet like the morning light Holds you close and gentle through the night We were barely grown when I found my way To a girl whose smile made me want to stay San Francisco bells rang out for two And I've been thanking heaven since for you [Chorus] Oh, Marie Rose, you gave your heart to all Faithful and true, you never let us fall Sixty-five years of a love so strong Happy birthday, baby, you're my song [Verse 2] You crossed the ocean just to be with me An airman's love so far from family Twenty years of goodbyes at the gate You held our home while you'd wait and wait Then came two children, gifts from up above You raised them strong on nothing but your love [Chorus] Oh, Marie Rose, you gave your heart to all Faithful and true, you never let us fall Sixty-five years of a love so strong Happy birthday, baby, you're my song [Bridge] Now four little hearts call you Grandma too Every one of them a part of you You hold this family like a steady hand The strongest heart I'll ever understand [Verse 3] Now we chase the sun on a cruise ship deck Short trips, long roads, your head against my neck Forty-six years and I want so much more Still your man, like I was before We've been blessed through every single day And I'll keep loving you in every way [Chorus] Oh, Marie Rose, you gave your heart to all Faithful and true, you never let us fall Sixty-five years of a love so strong Happy birthday, baby, forever my song [Outro] Happy birthday, my rose Forever yours, that's how it goes
