The Reason Why I Sing

Every morn' when I awake
I see your smiling bring
Happiness, make no mistake
The reason why I sing.

Days fill up with love so pure,
You are my everything.
Long nights no longer endure,
Sing my nightingale sing.

Grateful for your tender touch,
To your heart I will cling.
Because you've given so much,
You're the reason I sing.

Spend with you, my golden years
Together love takes wing.
Heaven ringing in our ears.
You're the reason I sing.
