[Verse 1]
I can’t carve a ring from old barn wood
Can’t fix that porch like I always said I would
My fingers fumble every little tool they touch
But I’ve been holding you just fine
And maybe that’s enough
[Chorus]
All I can make is you a song
A few right words where my hands go wrong
I can’t build a thing that’s gonna last a hundred years
But I can sing the truth right into your ears
On this day, like every day, it’s true
The best thing I ever made was loving you
[Verse 2]
I’ve bent more nails than I’ve ever driven straight
Burned the steaks, always showin’ up too late
But you laugh it off and pull me in so close
Guess my greatest little gift
Is the way I hold you so
[Chorus]
All I can make is you a song
A few right words where my hands go wrong
I can’t build a thing that’s gonna last a hundred years
But I can sing the truth right into your ears
On this day, like every day, it’s true
The best thing I ever made was loving you
[Bridge]
So here’s my heart in a three-minute frame (oh yeah)
Every line another way to say your name
Might not be much, just a melody and rhyme
But I’ll keep giving you this love
For a lifetime
[Chorus]
All I can make is you a song
A few right words where my hands go wrong
I can’t build a thing that’s gonna last a hundred years
But I can sing the truth right into your ears
On this day, like every day, it’s true
The best thing I ever made
The only thing I ever made
Was loving you
