Beneath That '77 Sun

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Half a century, look how far we've come From a summer kiss beneath that '77 sun Two kids with the world all laid out at our feet By '81 the vows made everything complete And through the years you held the whole thing tight Sweetie, you were always the light [Chorus] Oh, this is our legacy, love that never breaks Built on every early morning, every sacrifice we make You're the strongest woman that I've ever known Glenda, you gave our family a home Fifty years of holding on [Verse 2] '84 brought a daughter with a gymnast's grace Weekends on the road, chasing every place '89 our boy, and those racing days Motorcycles roaring through a country haze I was working states away, weeks at a time But you raised them up so fine [Chorus] Oh, this is our legacy, love that never breaks Built on every early morning, every sacrifice we make You're the strongest woman that I've ever known Glenda, you gave our family a home Fifty years of holding on [Bridge] Four little boys, then a baby girl to hold Grandbabies since 2018, hearts of gold Salt air and beaches, the footprints in the sand Every memory written by your hand [Verse 3] Now the working days are finally behind A brand new chapter, just you and me to find More trips to the water, sunsets side by side Sweetie, you're forever my pride Whatever roads are left to see I'll walk them all with thee [Chorus] Oh, this is our legacy, love that never breaks Built on every early morning, every sacrifice we make You're the strongest woman that I've ever known Glenda, you gave our family a home Fifty years of holding on [Outro] Half a century, still my whole heart's song Sweetie, I'll love you all life long
