Lyrics

[Piano intro - gentle arpeggios]
[Verse 1]
Remember that first birthday we shared together?
Just candles, cake, and promises so new
I watched you smile across the simple table
And knew right then how much I'd love you through
The years ahead were wrapped in pure potential
Like presents waiting patiently in line
Each moment since has proved my heart was right then
As love keeps growing stronger, yours and mine
[Chorus]
Every year I love you more
With each candle that we light
Every year brings something pure
Making memories burn bright
[Verse 2]
Today I see the lines of joy around you
They tell the story of our shared delight
Each laugh we've shared has left its gentle trace there
A map of happiness that feels so right
The cake might change, the numbers keep on climbing
But something stays as constant as the stars
This feeling deep inside keeps amplifying
I fall in love again with who you are
[Chorus]
Every year I love you more
With each candle that we light
Every year brings something pure
Making memories burn bright
[Bridge]
[Piano building]
Time's a gift when spent with you
Each birthday makes this more clear
All the moments we've lived through
Lead us to this precious year
[Verse 3]
So make a wish and know that I'll be here still
When next year's candles wait to dance again
I'll sing this song of love that keeps on growing
As sure as birthdays come, my heart's refrain
[Final Chorus]
Every year I love you more
With each candle that we light
Every year brings something pure
Making memories burn bright
(Making memories burn bright)
