Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Eighteen candles
On your cake this year
You walk in smiling
Pulling Nathan near
I see the promise
In the way you shine
From this moment
You’re a part of mine
[Chorus]
Happy birthday
Emily
Welcome to our crazy
Loving family
You’re the answer to a prayer he never said out loud
Hand in hand with my brave
Stubborn Nathan
We’re so thankful for the life you’re making
With our marine and with us
You belong here now
(you belong here now)
[Verse 2]
I know the distance
When he has to go
Long late phone calls
Whispers soft and low
You hold his picture
Like you hold his heart
Your strength and kindness
Win me from the start
[Chorus]
Happy birthday
Emily
Welcome to our crazy
Loving family
You’re the answer to a prayer he never said out loud
Hand in hand with my brave
Stubborn Nathan
We’re so thankful for the life you’re making
With our marine and with us
You belong here now
(you belong here now)
[Bridge]
One more seat at Sunday dinner
One more laugh around the room
One more daughter I can cherish
In every season
Every June
If you ever feel uncertain
Or the road feels rough to see
You will never walk it lonely
You will always have our love
And me
[Chorus]
Happy birthday
Emily
Welcome to our crazy
Loving family
You’re the answer to a prayer he never said out loud
Hand in hand with my brave
Stubborn Nathan
We’re so thankful for the life you’re making
With our marine and with us
You belong here now
You belong to this wild
Grateful family now
