This year when I say happy birthday, darlin',
I'll say it in the same old fashioned way;
A kiss, a smile, a wish that 'tho you're older,
You'll always be the way you are today.
You're not older, honey, you're just sweeter,
And it's heaven just knowin' that you're here;
And tonight when I wish you happy birthday,
I'll tell you once again how much I care.
Love and happiness just go on growing,
Like the scent of roses and the taste of wine;
The only thing that seems to make them linger,
Is the way they hold each precious bit of time.
You're not older, honey, you're just sweeter,
And it's heaven just knowin' that you're here;
And tonight when I wish you happy birthday,
I'll tell you once again how much I care.
I'll tell you once again how much I care.
