Happy birthday, my love, eighteen today
But I still remember, like it was yesterday
The child with the antics and golden laughter
The swaggering confidence only came after
Back then, I looked at you oh so fondly
Your eyes full of the sweetest uncertainty
Your smiles captured just about every heart
Too easily to realize how fragile they are.
No matter how much you grow, how far you go
You'll always be the only love that I know.
And no matter how many times we say goodbye
I'd go through hell to come back by your side.
I know there's nothing you can't rise above
For never was there a boy better loved.
