(Intro – gentle platoon-style guitar picking)
(acoustic guitar with light delay)
Verse 1:
I waited all my life for this,
To hear two voices call me “dad.”
Tiny feet across the floor,
A dream I never knew I had.
Amir’s laughter fills the dawn,
Adam’s eyes could calm a storm—
And though I leave for work each day,
You’re the fire that keeps me warm.
(Guitar joins by soft snare & bass drum heartbeat)
Chorus:
Little hands, big world to hold,
You’re my heart as I grow old.
Every mess you make, I swear,
I’d clean it twice just to be there.
I’ll teach you all the things I’ve known,
So you can build your life, your home—
And when I’m gone, you’ll understand,
You were always my best plan.
(Instrumental – light electric guitar riff + bass groove)
Verse 2:
Sometimes I’m miles down that road,
Chasing dreams to keep you fed.
But every mile between our hearts,
I count till you’re tucked in bed.
Someday you’ll stand where I stand now,
With your own kids in your arms—
And you’ll see the way a father’s love
Can move the earth and calm the storms.
(Bridge – drums swell, then fall to acoustic)
Time will fly, my little men,
You’ll trade your toys for wedding rings.
But in your hearts, I’ll live again,
In every song your laughter sings.
(Final Chorus – full band, heartfelt)
Little hands, big world to hold,
You’re my story, pure and bold.
Even when you fall or fight,
You’ll still be my greatest light.
So grow tall, my boys, be kind, be strong,
Carry my name, keep the right from wrong—
And when I’m gone, don’t you cry too long,
‘Cause you were always my best song.
(Outro – soft guitar, fading echo)
Two little boys, two little stars…
You’re the reason I made it this far.
