Mary, Our Spring Came Twice

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a dirt road in my memory Where the summer used to shine Two kids walking home from Junior High With your hand held tight in mine We were fourteen and so certain Mary, you were my sunshine [Chorus] Happy birthday, Sunny You still light up my sky Fifty years of praying Brought you back into my life God wrote us a new beginning When I thought my song was through Every day's a sweet blessing 'Cause I get to spend it with you [Verse 2] Life pulled us down different roads Your mama had her say We each loved forty faithful years Then grief walked in to stay I looked for you but couldn't find you Then you found me anyway [Chorus] Happy birthday, Sunny You still light up my sky Fifty years of praying Brought you back into my life God wrote us a new beginning When I thought my song was through Every day's a sweet blessing 'Cause I get to spend it with you [Bridge] Who'd have thought that heaven Would lead that girl back home Two hearts that knew the healing Of never walking alone [Verse 3] Now you're kneeling in the garden Planting flowers in the spring Your faith is strong, your family's close You find joy in everything Two years this May, my darling You make me more of a man [Chorus] Happy birthday, Sunny You still light up my sky Fifty years of praying Brought you back into my life God wrote us a new beginning When I thought my song was through Every day's a sweet blessing 'Cause I get to spend it with you [Outro] Happy birthday, Sunny Mary, you're my whole life, my second chance I can't imagine one more day Without you in my arms
