“Ringing”

Mystic spells and ringing bells, what life brings only time will tell, but when love arrives it’s the day hate dies; it power, it’s pure, it grows and thrives

And so as we go our separate lives, be sure have a ball and live your life, build a family, love your wife, it doesn’t matter if it’s day or night, because somewhere always the sun shines bright

Somewhere out there birds are singing, love is blooming, bells are ringing, excitement, anticipation, life’s full of new beginnings, so send thanks you’s to the guest’s for all the gifts they’re bringing and be sure to always fill your glass til it’s brimming

And though I can’t be there in person I’m there in mind, and one day, one way I promise I’ll find the time to find a way and escape out from this place and build the life that I want for me but first me needs to find a way to be free, but when we’re together you and I become we, a promise — won’t break it, I promise we’ll make it, just wait and see

So enjoy the day, dance through the night, blaze like the sun and keep your goals within sight, you’ve worked hard all your life and the time is more than right, without denial you’ve earned the right to be first in line and enjoy your life

Remember to take it all in, remember to smile, it won’t be too much longer, I’ll see you in a while , we’ll break bread and drunk dial, we;ll cuss and we’ll fight, and hug it out at the end of the night, that’s what brothers are for — I know it it’s life

So through thick and thin and whether vice or sin, black and blue and then once again, they’ll come a time long since when — we’ve apart becomes together once again, and my oh my and when oh when, it’ll be a day to mark with a pen, because when magic comes it’s pure happiness and zen

I’m happy for all your successes, and I’m happy for your bestes’, I’m glad you’ve made it through and that ou are you because the you I love is the one who’s true

Congratulations, celebrations, raise a glass and toast libations, it’s the party of a generation and it’s for you and your bride you’re a wonderful brother and I love you is my declaration
