Heart of Gold, Patricia

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Morning light comes slow and gold Coffee's warm, the day unfolds Fifty-two years down this road And I'd walk it all again Through the seasons, come what may I love you more today than yesterday A steady heart that showed me how to stay [Chorus] Oh, you've got a heart of gold, Patricia Shining brighter every year Strong and faithful, kind and true There's no one quite like you Happy birthday to the love I'll always hold Patricia, you're my heart of gold [Verse 2] Seventy-one and full of grace There's a light upon your face You give your family all you are Your time, your hands, your prayers Little Grady on your knee You pour your love so faithfully A savior's song is where you'll always be [Chorus] Oh, you've got a heart of gold, Patricia Shining brighter every year Strong and faithful, kind and true There's no one quite like you Happy birthday to the love I'll always hold Patricia, you're my heart of gold [Bridge] Through every storm we weathered well Your faith became the story that we tell Here's to a healthy road ahead And all the years we've yet to spend [Verse 3] When I count my blessings, dear The greatest one is sitting here A hard-working girl who gave her best And never asked for more So on this day I'll say it plain I'll love you forever, come sun or rain Forever and ever, that's my sweet refrain [Chorus] Oh, you've got a heart of gold, Patricia Shining brighter every year Strong and faithful, kind and true There's no one quite like you Happy birthday to the love I'll always hold Patricia, you're my heart of gold [Outro] A heart of gold, a love so true Forever, girl, I'm loving you Happy birthday, my heart of gold
