Analysis of Happy Anniversary
Happy Anniversary
March 17,2021
25 years and still going strong
Nobody thought we’d last this long,
We’ve had our ups and we’ve had our downs
Lots of smiles and our share of frowns.
We’ve learned a lot in our time together
In the sunshine and through stormy weather.
But by the grace of God above
We’ve got each other and lots of love.
