No track playing
Start playback to see track details here.
(soft sigh) (ahhhh) It's October again,
the leaves are gold and deep
I brought the yellow roses
that you used to keep
Fifty-four years today, since you wore that white lace
I'm sitting on this bench,
looking at your name in stone
Oh, I wish
you could see them all now
How the kids have grown,
how they make me proud
Your smile
is living in our daughter's eyes
And the little ones still think
you're in the skies
Happy anniversary,
my sweet love (mmm-mmm)
Young Tommy got married
just three weeks ago
He asked for your ring,
and I couldn't say no
His bride looked so lovely,
it took me right back To the little white church
down by the old track
Oh, I wish
you could see them all now
How the kids have grown,
how they make me proud
Your smile
is living in our daughter's eyes
And the little ones still think you're in the skies
Happy anniversary,
my sweet love
I'll walk back to the car
before the wind gets cold
But in my heart,
your hand is still the one I hold
See you next year,
my girl (mmm)
