To my one and only, the love of my life, the father of my children, as I waited your arrival this morning up here in our treehouse, as I worked to get things ready, I kept hearing Close to you by the Carpenters, it always reminds me of you.
“(They Long To Be) Close To You”
Why do birds suddenly appear, ev’ry time you are near?
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky, ev’ry time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
Why do stars fall down from the sky, ev’ry time you walk by?
Just like me, they long to be close to you.
On the day that you were born the angels got together.
And decided to create a dream come true.
So, they sprinkled moon dust in your hair of gold,
And star-light in your eyes of blue.
That is why all the girls in town follow you all around.
Just like me, they long to be close to you…
Just like me, they long to be close to you…
Happy Birthday, my love. I am sure as we watch and listen to the little and big, blue birdies and stare at the stars tonight or early morn, I will be humming this tune, thankful for life and our wonderful experience here on Earth, especially celebrating you and your existence.
I am teary…..
Happy birthday to your one and only. Have fun you two live birds.
