Untitled

Here I am sittin’ on the kitchen counter

Bills spread out on a piece of paper

Starin’ at numbers, starin’ at walls

Tryin’ to be strong but man it’s hard

Thinkin’ ‘bout my son and daughter

Wish me and your mama could’ve gone farther

Wish somehow we could’ve made it work

But sometimes love just runs outta dirt

⸻

Pre-Chorus

I’m hurtin’ again, pourin’ Old Number 7

Prayin’ to God up in heaven

Wonderin’ if you’d be better off

If I just disappeared somehow

But then your faces hit my mind

And I swear that thought shuts down

⸻

Chorus

‘Cause I miss y’all every week you ain’t with me

The silence in this house just kills me

But you best believe I’m gonna stand tall

At every game, every play, every call

I love y’all with everything I have

Even when life cuts deep and bad

We might be broken, but we’re okay

I’m your daddy — and I ain’t walkin’ away

⸻

Verse 2

Wish I could fix it with your mama

But she’s happy now with another man

And that’s a hurt a father swallows

Just to do the best he can

I ain’t perfect, I ain’t proud

Of every tear I’ve cried out loud

But when I look into your eyes

That’s where my whole world lies

⸻

Bridge (Build it up, big guitars)

Alaina — April 10th, you changed my life

Sammy — April 27th, my little light

Every year I’ll make it count

Candles bright, shout it out

No matter where this road may bend

You’ve got a dad who won’t give in

⸻

Final Chorus (Big, powerful)

Yeah I miss y’all every week you ain’t with me

But that just means you still complete me

I’ll be there for every dream you chase

Every milestone, every base

Kaitlyn I’m sorry we didn’t make it

I love y’all with everything I am

And someday you’ll understand

We might’ve fell — but we don’t break

We’re gonna be alright…

Yeah, we’re gonna be okay
