For the Mayor
It takes a heart to make a home
It takes the strongest hands
To lay the brick and stone
The largest town can feel alone
But it's the gentlest touch
That makes this town a home
So here's to the Mayor And let it be known That it's only by love And not by blood That he sits upon his throne Here's to Lord Mayor And the office he holds The love he shows The cross that he bears For all those who care Here's to the Mayor
It takes courage to make a stand It takes a warrior's soul To bring peace to the land It takes someone who understands Who will do what must be done Simply because he can
So here's to the Mayor And let it be known That it's only by love And not by blood That he sits upon his throne Here's to Lord Mayor And the office he holds The love he shows The cross that he bears For all those who care Here's to the Mayor
It takes someone who'll take a chance Who sees these diamonds in the rough And takes a second glance And when we've seen hard times advance Who always seems to find the good In any circumstance
So here's to the Mayor And let it be known That it's only by love And not by blood That he sits upon his throne Here's to Lord Mayor And the office he holds The love he shows The cross that he bears For all those who care Here's to the Mayor
So here's to the Mayor And let it be known That it's only by love And not by blood That he sits upon his throne Here's to Lord Mayor And the office he holds The love he shows The cross that he bears For all those who care Here's to the Mayor
For all that you share Our thanks we declare Here's to the Mayor
