The 30th anniversary of your birth is the marking of your gentle soul

You are a lily bud in the palm of my hand

Blink not - for you may disappear into the autumn air

​

Doing math in my head

I'm all shook up from head to toe

​

You and I are separated by time and space 

Yet our heart bleeds effortlessly into one

​

My heart melts into yours

on that elevator ride up

Up and up we go

​

A moment in time marked by the bell ringer in the sky

​

Your brave spirit took a journey separated by land and sea

​

Echo of the wedding bell can be heard in my mind's eye

​

Forever true

​

Treacherous journey ahead just to test if our love is real or false

Scar tissue heals quickly

where the scent of your perfume is in the air

​

30 years for a birthday

50 years for a musical

​

Never miss a beat or a single night

​

There are numbers on a roulette table that spins round and round

​

Your brave spirit guided by destiny 

​

The magic you seek

The magic we have

and the magic we cherish

​

Two hearts in one as we dance the night away

Tears running deep into the river bed

Gently flowing away into the sea

Joined by dolphins swimming against the tide

​

Laughter can be heard from the distant land

The spirit of our ancestors rejoicing in Heaven

​

On this first day of your birth....

On this first day of November

​

with so much to remember

​

30 years ago today

​

A cry of a newborn can be heard 

From the distant land
