lyrics

Words & Music by Stephen Bautista

I saw you glance in the mirror today
The expression you made was quite clear
And I know you wonder if I still see
The same you as in those first years
So here from my heart is the truth you should know
There are things I can see now I couldn't before

Chorus:
The lines upon your face trace our years together
The silver in your hair show the storms we've weathered
And each year I’m so blessed to see with my eyes
A perfect example of beauty being refined

When I look at you now I see so much more
After all of the many years we’ve shared
I see the memories etched in over time
From the smiles and the tears we have shed
And even if I could roll back time somehow
I wouldn't change anything from how you look now

Chorus:

Instrumental

So here from my heart is the truth you should know
There are things I can see now I couldn't before

Chorus:
And each year I’m so blessed to see with my eyes
A perfect example of beauty being refined
