"You placed gold on my finger  
You brought love like I've never known  
You gave life to our children  
And to me a reason to go on    
You're my friend when I'm hungry  
You're my shelter from troubled winds  
You're my anchor in life's ocean  
But most of all you're my best friend  
When I need hope and inspiration  
You're always strong when I'm tired and weak  
I could search this whole world over  
You'd still be everything that I need.
"
