Lyrics
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ [Verse 1] Another year has flown right by, my boy, you're growing tall Seems just like yesterday I taught you how to catch a ball Now you're chasing dreams with fire in your eyes so bright Happy birthday, son, shine on with all your might. [Chorus] Happy birthday, son, from the bottom of my heart You've been a blessing, right from the very start May your path be true, beneath the starlit sky With a father's love that will never, ever die. [Verse 2] I remember scraped up knees and stories in the dark Your laughter echoing, leaving its own special mark Through every challenge, every joy, I've watched you brave and bold A chapter in our family story, more precious than pure gold. [Chorus] Happy birthday, son, from the bottom of my heart You've been a blessing, right from the very start May your path be true, beneath the starlit sky With a father's love that will never, ever die. [Bridge] The world will test you, son, and sometimes knock you down But know you're always welcome in our little country town Our roots run deep, our bond is strong, a shelter from the storm My love for you, a guiding light, keeping your spirit warm. [Chorus] Happy birthday, son, from the bottom of my heart You've been a blessing, right from the very start May your path be true, beneath the starlit sky With a father's love that will never, ever die. [Outro] Yeah, a father's love, forever true, my son, happy birthday to you.
