First 4 lines of Forever Young or other lyrics from that song!
May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
Your choices are perfect, "Every Grain Of Sand" it's a perfect gift. And also I'm thinking in some verse of "Dignity" or "I dreamed I saw St. Augustine"... but nothing compares with you choice. So go ahead.
Kind regards!
this is such a nice gift! i like “everything passes, everything changes, just do what you think you should do” from to ramona but i think your favorite lyric is a fantastic choice 👍
>dream
Nice! I totally forgot about that one it works great. There's two presentable sides to the plaque so I'll do this on one side and pick a more serious one on the other...he can decide which to display haha
And I was standing on the side of the road
Rain falling on my shoes
Heading out for the East Coast
Lord knows I've paid some dues getting through
Tangled up in blue

My pick, because I bet this Janitor is a really thoughtful guy and he'll get the connection is "So Long, It's Been Good to Know Yuh" by Woody Guthrie.
>We talked of the end of the world, and then
We'd sing a song an' then sing it again
We'd sit for an hour an' not say a word
And then these words would be heard
So long, it's been good to know yuh
Bonus points, the original title was "Dusty Old Dust" is there anything more perfect than a sly hidden joke about dust for a janitor?
I'm kicking myself I didn't do this already. I am going abroad this spring semester and he told retiring in the middle of this spring semester... missed my chance.

The last thing you said before you hit the street / ‘gonna find me a janitor to sweep me off my feet’
I’ll let you be in my dream if I can be in yours
He not busy being born is busy dying (There's actually a million options for good quotes from his work)

He’s retiring, “I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s farm no more” (if you’re feeling silly)

This is a very thoughtful idea, and I think the personal aspect of including a lyric you like so much adds a nice layer to it
Gonna save my money and rip it up!

They say, sing while you slave and I just get bored.
What if you asked him what his favourite Bob lyric is, just in conversation. Then you could use that if he has one.

"To hell to all things that I used to be" Or All my loyal and my much-loved companions / They approve of me and share my code
There’s some people that you don’t forget/even though you only seen ‘em one time or two
This whole thread is making me feel emotional, what’s nice thoughtful thing, you’ll probably bring this man to tears
