Forever, Joe 2

Verse 1]

Joe, I remember seventeen

Lying under starlit skies so serene

Rollerblade ramp, hands held tight

Wishing on a star within the fading light

You brought us through the ice and snow

Crazy drives back home, watched the moments grow

From Mineral Wells to every place we’d roam

You always made it feel like home

Oh, you mean the world, you truly do

Every fight, every struggle, seeing it through

We made it to the other side

With love and cherish, by your side

That bushy red beard, your warm embrace

A smile that lights up every single space

Those juicy steaks, a true delight

You cooked for us, morning, noon, and night

Even found Avie's special Blankey, I recall

You never gave up, you gave your all

Through all the years, the laughter and the tears

You chased away my every fear

Oh, you mean the world, you truly do

Every fight, every struggle, seeing it through

We made it to the other side

With love and cherish, by your side

Remember Rudolph, with a secret sigh

Those special moments, just you and I

We've journeyed far, faced every test

Knowing with you, I'm truly blessed

Your corny jokes, your quick-witted mind

A loving heart, one of a kind

You make folks laugh, with ease and grace

Bringing smiles to every single face

Your kisses, oh, I crave them so

More than you often know

Oh, you mean the world, you truly do

Every fight, every struggle, seeing it through

We made it to the other side

With love and cherish, by your side

I may not say it, not enough, it's true

But Joe, my heart belongs to you

You mean the world, you know it now

Forever and always, somehow.
