Love and Years

I just want to let you know that you will always be

A very special person who means the world to me

From the first, so long ago, until this very day

You've only grown more lovely with your tender touch of gray

You take the time to listen to what I have to say

Which means so very much in this world of dismay

And even though some lines have come across your face

To me they've added character in each and every place

I see you standing firm in a world that's changing fast

To me you are the link between my future and my past

The years will come and go and I know that things will change

But the memories I have of you, in my heart they will remain.
