Eva Cassidy's Anniversary Song.
Today has been a special day
An anniversary, a request
That you play your piano
As the evening lights slowly fade
I never knew I’d get this old dear
Never had a reason to live so long
And the Lord’s been like my shadow
Ever since I was grown
No I never knew it would turn out this way
A birthday with apologies
For all the tears and regrets
And I’ve always saved your poetry
For all the years when we forget
So sing with me softly
As the day turns to night
And let us wonder in paradise with you
I love you and good night
An anniversary, a request
That you play your piano
As the evening lights slowly fade
I never knew I’d get this old dear
Never had a reason to live so long
And the Lord’s been like my shadow
Ever since I was grown
No I never knew it would turn out this way
A birthday with apologies
For all the tears and regrets
And I’ve always saved your poetry
For all the years when we forget
So sing with me softly
As the day turns to night
And let us wonder in paradise with you
I love you and good night
