Tomorrow it happens,
Another year will have passed,
Passed in my life,
Another great year further,
Further in my long life.
I often look back and remember,
Remember the wonderful times,
As a child playing with friends,
Into my teens and going up the pub
To play darts and cards with friends.
Working for my whole life,
All forty seen years and one month,
Never out of work.
Married to My Joyce,
Married for almost forty years
Until that time when dementia took her,
Took her aways from me ,
But I know she will be there,
Be there waiting for me.
Then came that time when I met her,
Met my second love,
And she and I live in wonder.
Our love so strong
But knowing our lovers now passed will be there,
And the four of us will enjoy life
Enjoy life together when the time comes.
So looking back on my life
I have had a wonderful time
And look back of it with love,
Love and thankfulness
For the time I have had,
The time I have had in this world.
