Lyrics

(Verse 1)
Another year, St. Swithin's Day, the forecast rain may fall
But sunshine's always in your heart, it shines so so bright its blinding!
From Cotswolds hills, the Pensilva view, a sight you hold so dear
With Mitzi purring by your side, chasing away all fear
(Chorus)
Oh, Gillian Sloane Murphy, Mum, Happy Birthday to you!
For all the love, the gentle hand, in everything you do
Ross and Sarah, forty-something now, remembering every phase
The caring mum, the steadfast friend, through all our changing days
(Verse 2)
The crochet hooks, a cozy yarn, creating stitch by stitch
A lovely home, with Purdy, Fig, we learnt from the best, how to bring warmth, love and laughter,
And spiders safe in their soft webs, you leave them there to roam
A nature lover, kind and true, such kindness, for all creatures, big and small,
(Chorus)
Oh, Gillian Sloane Murphy, Mum, Happy Birthday to you!
For all the love, the gentle hand, in everything you do
Ross and Sarah, forty-something now, remembering every phase
The caring mum, the steadfast friend, through all our changing days
(Bridge)
Though loved ones lost are on our minds, a gentle, guiding grace
We feel their presence watching over, in this comforting space
And Sarah's August wedding nears, a joy we'll soon embrace
Can't wait for you to come and stay, a smile upon your face
(Chorus)
Oh, Gillian Sloane Murphy, Mum, Happy Birthday to you!
For all the love, the gentle hand, in everything you do
Ross and Sarah, forty-something now, remembering every phase
The caring mum, the steadfast friend, through all our changing days
(Outro)
Our amazing, loving Mum, so special and so loved, thinking of her on this special day, her special day,
We love you very, very much, the best mum in the land!
