Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Eighteen candles
Smilin’ in that kitchen light
Emily, you’re laughin’
Tryin’ hard to hide your pride
Got your boots by the doorway
Cap and gown still on the chair
Whole world on your windshield
But we’re all gathered here
[Chorus]
So here’s to you, Emily, on your birthday
Here’s to every wish you’re gonna make
May the road be smooth, the storms be few
And love be more than you can take
If it leads you down an aisle someday
In a white dress, sayin’ “I do”
I pray my boy, that Marine named Nathan
Is standin’ there with you
[Verse 2]
He’s out there on the coastline
Dog tags by his heart
Letters in his duffel
Talkin’ ‘bout a brand new start
You write him little stories
On the backs of grocery lists
Talk of front porches
And forever in a kiss
[Chorus]
So here’s to you, Emily, on your birthday
Here’s to every wish you’re gonna make
May the road be smooth, the storms be few
And love be more than you can take
If it leads you down an aisle someday
In a white dress, sayin’ “I do”
I pray my boy, that Marine named Nathan
Is standin’ there with you
[Bridge]
We can’t see tomorrow
But I still raise this glass
To the girl you are tonight
And the rings you might wear at last (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
So here’s to you, Emily, on your birthday
Here’s to every wish you’re gonna make
May the road be smooth, the storms be few
And love be more than you can take
If it leads you down an aisle someday
In a white dress, sayin’ “I do”
God bless your year, God bless that Marine
And the day he marries you

Style
country, Warm modern country track with male vocals, twangy acoustic guitars, steady brushed snare, and melodic pedal steel. Verses stay intimate and mid-tempo; chorus opens with bright fiddle fills, stacked harmonies, and a lifted drum groove. Subtle organ pad in the bridge to add emotion before a final, bigger chorus with ad-libbed lines and a sing-along feel.
