[Verse 1]
Met you just a week ago today
You called my bluff, I liked the way you played
I burned that steak, you laughed it off
Said, "Boy, I'm staying anyway"
Kids running ‘round the kitchen floor
Crayons, cartoons, shoes by the door
You kissed my cheek, I felt that spark
Like I'd been here forever more
[Chorus]
Where have you been my whole life
Right here in my sight
In a little brick house on a weeknight
With your hand in mine
I never knew love could hit this right
Over one good laugh and a burned steak bite
Where have you been my whole life
‘Cause I’m ready for the rest of our time
[Verse 2]
I love your kids, they call me by my name
Little arms around me, man, my heart just changed
Bedtime stories, one more song
And I’m praying this is where I belong
Talking ‘bout tomorrow on the couch
You say you’re scared, I say it out loud
“I’m all in, if you’ll let me stay
From this crazy week to our old age”
[Chorus]
Where have you been my whole life
Right here in my sight
In a little brick house on a weeknight
With your hand in mine
I never knew love could hit this right
Over one good laugh and a burned steak bite
Where have you been my whole life
‘Cause I’m excited for the rest of our time
[Bridge]
Seven days and I’m feeling
Like I’ve waited all these years
For your Friday night smile
And those tiny “I love yous” in my ears
If this is what forever’s like
Baby, I’m in for the ride (oh yeah)
[Chorus]
Where have you been my whole life
Right here in my sight
Round the dinner table and porch light
With your hand in mine
I never knew love could hit this right
From that first bad steak to this good life
Where have you been my whole life
‘Cause I’m ready for the rest of our time
