Written for my grandparents, Earl & Helen Brown, on the occasion of their 50th wedding anniversary in 1971.
Lyrics
50 Years
Words & Music by Keith Brown
50 years is a long time, wouldn’t you say?
You’ve come a ways through all those days.
But 50 years is a short time for both of you,
Today is new and you’re one of few.
And what, what have you got to say?
A golden ray lights up this day,
So live, the golden sun shall light your way,
And you can say down through forever and a day
50 years was a grand time for you & I,
So let’s live high and love tonight.
