[Verse 1]
Back to August ‘96
Didn’t know a heart could stretch like this
You took my hand
I learned the steps
One small smile
And my life reset
[Chorus]
I’ve loved you since August ‘96
Every year
Every laugh
Every kiss
You taught my heart what loving is
You’re the home I never knew I missed
You’re the best dad
The grandkids’ favorite
My eyes sparkle ‘cause your love’s in it
I’ve loved you
Since August ‘96
[Verse 2]
Saturday mornings
Coffee steam
You reading stories on the old blue seat
Little hands climbing on your knees
Calling your name like a melody
[Chorus]
I’ve loved you since August ‘96
Every year
Every laugh
Every kiss
You taught my heart what loving is
You’re the home I never knew I missed
You’re the best dad
The grandkids’ favorite
My eyes sparkle ‘cause your love’s in it
I’ve loved you
Since August ‘96
[Bridge]
You say I glow when you walk in (oh yeah)
I say it’s you
It’s always been
Every wrinkle
Every line we’ve earned
Is one more page in the love we’ve learned
[Chorus]
I’ve loved you since August ‘96
Every year
Every laugh
Every kiss
You taught my heart what loving is
You’re the home I never knew I missed
You’re the best dad
The grandkids’ favorite
My eyes sparkle ‘cause your love’s in it
I’ve loved you
Since August ‘96
I’ve loved you
Since August ‘96
