Prime of Your Life

Upbeat 40th birthday celebration song for a friend

[Verse 1] Four decades gone in the blink of an eye Remember the wild days, watching time fly You woke up this morning, a little more wise With a spark of adventure still left in your eyes No need to worry 'bout turning the page You know that the spirit is stronger than age [Chorus] Happy Birthday my friend, raise your glass to the sky Life begins at forty, let the good times fly You're hitting your stride, yeah you're touching the prime Getting better and better, just like a fine wine Yeah, forty looks good on you [Verse 2] They say it’s a milestone, over the hill But you’ve got the passion and you’ve got the will No mid-life crisis, just shifting the gears Laughing at worries and conquering fears Still the life of the party, still rocking the show You've got a long way and places to go [Bridge] So blow out the candles and make a big wish We’re celebrating a legend like this The past is a story, the future is bright We’re dancing together all through the night [Chorus] Happy Birthday my friend, raise your glass to the sky Life begins at forty, let the good times fly You're hitting your stride, yeah you're touching the prime Getting better and better, just like a fine wine Yeah, forty looks good on you [Outro] Yeah, forty looks good on you Happy Birthday to you Let's keep on rolling Yeah!
