This is to thank you for being by side
For comforting and caring when I was all confused inside.
This is for the phone calls you make every day
Just to tell me 'I love you' every minute of the day.

The way you take my hand in yours
For all the world to see
That this is the woman
Who is most special to me.

You always seem to know
When I need a hug, kiss or smile
You never cease to amaze me
When you say, I'm here let's talk for a while.

In decades past we've had our share
Of ups and downs and problems galore
But you are the one who remained at my side
Never thinking of walking out the door.

I adore the way you tell me,
"You are my forever best friend,
I love the way I believe in you
And that you will be there till the end.

Thank you for all the time you give me
And for saying, It's never enough
Thank you for listening as I ramble on
When things become rather tough.

We are in the best years of our lives
Forty years on our journey together
I want to grow old with you and you with me
I want to love YOU FOREVER.
