Lyrics
Verse 1
Mom was talking somewhere
In a room of laughing friends
I wandered through the grown-ups
Where little journeys end
A tall dark-haired stranger
Smiled as I walked by
“Whose little boy are you?”
I drew myself up high…
“I’m not a boy…”
With every ounce of heart
“I’m a GAR!”
You laughed…
And that’s where my story starts.
[Chorus]
Because of you
I never stopped wondering
I never stopped asking why
I still chase the roads unseen
Beyond the horizon line
Every story starts with one more question…
Because of you, I learned to See.
Verse 2
Grandma’s old house
Was a kingdom underground
Crooked wooden stairways
Where treasures could be found
I crossed a mighty chasm…
At least that’s how it seemed
A quarter inch to everyone…
A canyon in my dreams
I stood upon the dryer
Certain you would see…
“Catch me, Daddy!”
Before the world could answer…
You were there…
Teaching me to trust impossible leaps.
[Repeat Chorus]
Verse 3
Down a narrow wooded road
Where summer lost its heat
Gravel sang beneath the tires
Like old friends we would meet
A dusty door stood open
To every dream I’d dare
“Go pick out three to five books…”
You let me wander there
Dust danced in golden silence
Warm wood beneath my hands
I filled my arms with stories
You guarded all my wonder.
I’d search until I found you
Lost somewhere just like me
Chasing one more old map…
While I chased history.
[Repeat Chorus]
Verse 4
My ears were always listening
For one familiar creak
Across the hall I’d hold my breath
Before the floor would speak
A lion found the hallway
Or so my young heart knew
I hid beneath my blankets…
But fear still wandered through
I’d wait until the silence
Till morning came once more
Stepping through the lion’s den
To find Dad upon the floor.
The lion taught me…
That darkness wasn’t always gentle.
[Repeat Chorus]
Verse 5
I built a life in Florida
Beneath a different sky
A year and day of promises
My future standing by
Some hearts could not accept it
Some roads were left apart…
Then you said,
“I’d love to come.”
And something healed inside my heart.
[Bridge]
Looking back, I understand now…
I never needed to earn your heart.
You gave it freely…
And taught me to do the same.
Now every road calls my name…
Every story still begs to be read.
I never stopped wandering…
I never stopped wondering…
Because you taught me how to See.
Verse 6
I asked to be alone with you
Just you and I that day
I reached to hold your weathered hand…
I choked upon my heart.
“I love you.”
A quiet voice caught me off guard:
“I love you, too.”
I played my heart’s own melody…
You listened all the way.
When my song whispered, “Close your eyes…”
I saw myself in yours.
[Outro]
Every road still calls my name
Every story waits for me
I’ll keep wandering through this world…
The way you taught me how to See.
I’ll always be your Gar.
