36, it's a number, a step along the way, a number further than I had ever imagined, but closer than they say...

I Wished away my youth, I tried running from my past, found someone I wasn't looking for and I pray it always last...

I've seen life begin and I've watched it end, neiither leave you quite the same...
But what I have found as a travel round is llife changes you; day by day...

You know Vision is a funny thing, it see's cleary what has past
but seeing clearly what is to come, is far too much to ask...

What has come before was wonderful, far too grand and fair...
but what is to come I wonder still, if it can compare...

For beauty last forever between two lovers true
and the greatest beauty ever, is the one I found in you...

Don't forget to kiss me, daily, sometimes, maybe two
and hold my hand as time goes by and remember, I love you...

So 36, it's just a number, just a step along our way
A Journey we take together, and I cherish every day...

Your Husband & Friend
