Verse 1:

We all grow up thinking that this day is gonna change us in every way

The number sounds so terrifying
25 is an age when you start thinking bout all the things you do
What you want from this life and where it is you're heading


But now you're here I wanna say
Never been more proud of you than today

Looking at you right now guess what I see?
You've turned into the man I dreamed to have next to me.


Chorus:

25 or 52, I'll be standing next to you to hold your hand

If you need a friend
It's just a start of something new, you have no idea how much I believe in you
And I promise you

Through the fortune and the fame
Through the losses and the pain --
I'll be right next to you


Verse 2:


I bet you think now that you're grown up, the fun, the parties -- they gotta stop
I swear there's no way that is gonna happen
I love to see you smile way too much,

I love our drunk dancing way too much
I'll do anything to keep you happy


To keep you young and restless babe
To make you feel like 21 again
To make sure you never get too bossy and serious

And lose the young spirit we carry within us

... Through my wrinkles, through your snores,

Through all the boring hosehold chores,
Through all the $$#holes and the !@^%s --
I'll be right next to you.
