Don Morris

[Verse 1]
My world had come undone that day,
The pieces scattered where they lay,
Then someone walked across the court,
A racket, a smile, a kind of hope.
He taught me how to swing, to fight,
And somehow how to love the light.

[Chorus]
Soulmate, love of my life forever!
Through every storm we've weathered together,
Forty years and I'd do them again,
My teacher, my hero, my best friend.
You are the strength that carries us all,
The one who catches me when I fall.

[Verse 2]
Those gorgeous brown eyes found my own,
And suddenly I wasn't alone,
Don Morris, you gave me a home,
A son, a dog we'd call our own.
We won our matches side by side,
Beneath the waves, you were my guide.

[Chorus]
Soulmate, love of my life forever!
Through every storm we've weathered together,
Forty years and I'd do them again,
My teacher, my hero, my best friend.
You are the strength that carries us all,
The one who catches me when I fall.

[Bridge]
One lifetime's not enough to spend,
With you, my love, my dearest friend.
You take such care of everyone,
Especially me, my morning sun.

[Verse 3]
So here's to forty more, my dear,
More sunlit courts and skies so clear,
Don Morris, take my hand again,
Let's dive into what lies ahead.
With gratitude and endless joy,
You'll always be my whole heart's boy.

[Chorus]
Soulmate, love of my life forever!
Through every storm we've weathered together,
Forty years and I'd do them again,
My teacher, my hero, my best friend.
You are the strength that carries us all,
The one who catches me when I fall.

[Outro]
Brown eyes still shining, hand in mine,
My love, my always, my valentine.
