1-2-3, I love you

[Verse 1]
1-2-3, I Love You

[Verse 2]
Verse 1
You’ve always been the slow and steady kind,
Never in a hurry, always taking your time.
Working hard, with patience in your hands,
Showing me that love is something that stands.
You were there to listen, there to understand,
And somehow made things better just by taking my hand.
Through every little moment, every big dream too,
I always knew that I could count on you.

[Chorus]
Chorus
One, two, three — I love you,
Three little words that always got me through.
From little dates with Dad, just me and you,
To dancing in the kitchen like we always used to do.
Through all these years, one thing stayed true,
No matter where life took me, I could turn to you.
And if I could give you back the love you’ve given me,
I’d start with those words — one, two, three.

[Verse 3]
Verse 2
I remember that first concert, Shania on the stage,
You right there beside me — I can see it to this day.
And Nashville gave us memories I’ll always hold so near,
The kind that only mean more with every passing year.
It wasn’t always the big things that meant the most to me,
It was every quiet way you showed what love could be.
Patient and supportive, with a heart so strong and true,
So much of who I am came from watching you.

[Chorus]
Chorus
One, two, three — I love you,
Three little words that always got me through.
From little dates with Dad, just me and you,
To dancing in the kitchen like we always used to do.
Through all these years, one thing stayed true,
No matter where life took me, I could turn to you.
And if I could give you back the love you’ve given me,
I’d start with those words — one, two, three.

[Verse 4]
Bridge
Seventy years of stories,
Seventy years of life,
Of showing up for family
And doing what was right.
You’ve been the kind of man
I’ve always looked up to,
The best role model I could ask for,
Steady, loving, strong and true.
And of all the things life’s given me,
There’s one I’ll always treasure —
I’m so proud to be your daughter, Dad,
And I’ll be proud forever.

[Verse 5]
Final Chorus
One, two, three — I love you,
And Dad, I hope you know how much I do.
For every time you caught me,
Every dream you helped me chase,
For the patience and the kindness
And the love I can’t replace.
I’m proud to be your daughter,
And so proud to get to say,
You’ve been my greatest role model
In a thousand little ways.
There’s no one else quite like you,
There never could be, too,
In this whole wide world, Dad,
There’ll never be another you.

[Verse 6]
Outro
So here’s to seventy years, Dad,
And all that’s still to come.
I’ll always be your daughter,
No matter where life takes us.
You taught me love is patient,
And the strongest hearts stay true.
And if I had a thousand words,
I’d still come back to a few...

[Verse 7]
One, two, three —
I love you.

[Verse 8]
And Dad, there’ll never be
Another you.
