[Verse 1]
Bruce
You made it to eighty
Still got that twinkle in your eyes
Stories in every wrinkle
Laugh lines that never lie
Family crowded in the doorway
Candles dancing on the cake
You just smile and shake your head
Like
“How’d I get this far?” (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Eighty years young
Bruce
We’re singing your song
Birthday PARTY
All night long
Happiness
Health
Love all around you
May your days stay bright
Your troubles stay few
Eighty years young
And you still shine strong
We wish you long life
Hearts beating along
Bruce
Tonight this room belongs to you
Eighty more reasons to love you too (hey!)
[Verse 2]
Photos framed up on the mantel
Kids and grandkids by your side
You’ve been a compass and a shelter
Weathered every changing tide
You raise a glass in the kitchen
Say
“Every day’s a borrowed gift”
We feel the weight of those words
And the joy in every breath (oh)
[Chorus]
Eighty years young
Bruce
We’re singing your song
Birthday PARTY
All night long
Happiness
Health
Love all around you
May your days stay bright
Your troubles stay few
Eighty years young
And you still shine strong
We wish you long life
Hearts beating along
Bruce
Tonight this room belongs to you
Eighty more reasons to love you too
[Bridge]
Here’s to mornings still to come
Walks in the soft sun
Slow and sweet
Here’s to laughter at the table
And the empty chair you’ll never meet
Here’s to every quiet victory
Every tear that turned to grace
Bruce
You taught us how to live
With courage in your face (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Eighty years young
Bruce
We’re singing your song
Birthday PARTY
All night long
Happiness
Health
Love all around you
May your days stay bright
Your troubles stay few
Eighty years young
And you still shine strong
We wish you long life
Hearts beating along
Bruce
Tonight this room belongs to you
Eighty more reasons to love you too (happy birthday, Bruce)
