[Verse 1]
Jesse, I got your note in my bones
A little hand, a whole new home
She came through the door like dawn
And every hard day felt less gone
[Pre-Chorus]
You gave me a reason to stand
A fire in my weary hands
Now I walk a little straighter
Love got louder, life got greater
[Chorus]
Jesse, thank you
For my beautiful daughter
Jesse, thank you
For the life I’m living harder
You chose me
To do life with you
Jesse, thank you
I’ll thank you my whole life through
[Verse 2]
I watch her grin in the back seat
Tiny boots kicking on the bench seat
And I see you in her eyes
Like Sunday sun on summer skies
[Pre-Chorus]
You gave me a reason to stay
When the world got too heavy to raise
Now I hold on tighter than before
One more heartbeat, one more door
[Chorus]
Jesse, thank you
For my beautiful daughter
Jesse, thank you
For the life I’m living harder
You chose me
To do life with you
Jesse, thank you
I’ll thank you my whole life through
[Bridge]
If I ever lose my way
I just look at what we made
Small hands, big faith
And your name I still pray
[Final Chorus]
Jesse, thank you
For my beautiful daughter
Jesse, thank you
For the life I’m living harder
You chose me
To do life with you
Jesse, thank you
I’ll thank you my whole life through
Jesse, thank you
For my beautiful daughter
