[In the style of Bonnie Tyler and The Blue Nile] [Verse 1] Today .. Nan ... it your birthday, So here’s a song for you, A little bit of love and laughter, And memories we’ve shared too. Through all the years behind us, Through everything we’ve known, There’s one thing that will never change, You’ll never stand alone. [Chorus] Side by side or miles apart, Sisters are always connected by the heart. Through every road and every turn, Through every lesson that we’ve learned, No matter where this life may start, Sisters are always connected by the heart. [Verse 2] We’ve had our days of laughter, And days that weren’t so bright, But somehow through the years gone by, We always made things right. And though the years keep moving, And time can change a view, There’s a special place within my heart That will always belong to you. [Chorus] Side by side or miles apart, Sisters are always connected by the heart. Through every road and every turn, Through every lesson that we’ve learned, No matter where this life may start, Sisters are always connected by the heart. [Bridge] So Nan, today’s your special day, And I hope you know it’s true, Wherever life may take us, I’ll always think of you. The miles can never change it, The years can never part, For nothing can break the thread That runs between a sister’s heart. [Final Chorus] Side by side or miles apart, Sisters are always connected at the heart. So raise a glass and celebrate, Forget the years, forget the pain, Today’s your day, so let the good times start, Happy Birthday, Nan, ... (Happy Birthday, Nan,) My sister, my friend, Forever connected at the heart. [Outro] Today is your birthday, And this much will always be true... Side by side or miles apart, There’ll always be a part of me Connected to you. [Fade out]
