Max

[Verse 1]
Some love comes loud and fades away
Some love is built to stay
You held out a candy ring
Asked me to go steady, such a simple thing
But I saw it in your eyes that day
Your heart was pure in every way

[Chorus]
Brick by brick, we're laying it down
A foundation strong on solid ground
Through every storm, you say we're still here
Building together year after year
Happy birthday, baby, my peace, my home
With you I'll never stand alone

[Verse 2]
You stepped up for the boys and me
Gave us more than we could dream
Funny, yet you hold the line
Loyal, steady every time
Their faces light up at the door
You come home with snacks and so much more

[Chorus]
Brick by brick, we're laying it down
A foundation strong on solid ground
Through every storm, you say we're still here
Building together year after year
Happy birthday, baby, my peace, my home
With you I'll never stand alone

[Bridge]
Flowers for no reason, just because
Your gentle touch, your kind heart, that's love
Your children and mine, now ours
You glow holding grandkids in your arms

[Verse 3]
At night I lay my head on your chest
Watching TV, finally at rest
We just breathe, no need for words
You make me laugh till my whole heart's stirred
Max, I hope we give you all you give
This is just the beginning, love, of all we'll live

[Chorus]
Brick by brick, we're laying it down
A foundation strong on solid ground
Through every storm, you say we're still here
Building together year after year
Happy birthday, Max, my peace, my home
With you I'll never stand alone

[Outro]
Brick by brick, side by side
Happy birthday, Max, my love, my life
