lyrics

Thank you for 39 years
For sleepy Sundays
When you still got up
For every first date we’ve seen
We always hoped you’d fall in love
When we’ll say goodbye we’ll say goodbye with no tears
Thank you for 39 years

Had your first kiss in our parking lot
First said “I love you” in the booth over there
Now you eat alone at the counter
And she’s gone like newspapers
When you said goodbye you said goodbye with no tears
Thank you for 39 years

As far as we remember back
Henry drank his coffee black
Since 1983
Mallory drank hers with cream
We remember more than that
We remember more than that
Remember when your heart ached
And you needed a place to stay awake
We were open late for you
We were open late for you

Formica countertops wiped clean
Dishes washed and packed in crates
Play the last song on the jukebox
Before the auctioneer hauls it away
When we say goodbye we’ll say goodbye with no tears
Thank you for 39 years
