16
SUMMERS
AGO
I sat you in the sand
And you smiled up at me
And if there's one thing I know
My not -so -little man
There's magic in that sea
In our house by the water
I don't know who was raising who
And I guess I'm my mother's daughter,
cause I first stood up for me, standing up for you.
Here's to the one we call the king,
to where we're going now and where we've been.
No one could get me to grow
up until you did
Happy mother, happy life,
happy home, happy 16
I thought you'd be the first of three,
maybe four
Precious under mother's wing
And if time was reversed
In that house by the shore
I don't suppose we'd
change a thing
Like the summer sun
Breaks through the cloud
You shine a light
On how strong I can be
And who knew I
Could ever be this proud
Cause a heart as good as yours
Was made inside of me
Here's to the one we call the king
To where we're going now
and where we've been
No one forget me to grow
up until you did
Happy world, happy home,
happy life
Happy 16th!
Blessed are those who see
the world the way you do
And lucky are the ones to hold your hand
I learned how big I can love from loving you
Don't sixteen summers fly by, my
Nelson old man
Here's to the one we called the kid
To where we're going now
and where we've been
No one could get me to
grow up until you did
Happy work, happy home,
happy times
Here's to the one we call the
King, to where we're going now and where we've been,
no one forget me to grow up until you did.
Happy mother, happy home, happy life,
happy world, happy kid, happy times.
Happy 16th
Happy 16th
