“Stepped Right In”
Verse 1
You came out of nowhere, like a light in the dark,
A stranger one minute, then you captured my heart.
You didn’t run scared when you saw what came with me,
You saw a little boy and loved him like family.
Pre-Chorus
You never hesitated, never took a step behind,
You showed us both what a real man’s like.
Chorus
You stepped right in and never looked away,
Loved my little boy from the very first day.
Held my hand through the highs and the lows,
Gave us a kind of love that only heaven knows.
You’re patient, you’re gentle, you’re everything I need,
The strongest kind of man is the one who leads with love, not pride or greed.
Mat, every day I thank God you’re mine,
You gave my son a daddy and gave my heart a home to find.
Verse 2
I watch you make him laugh, watch you teach him how to grow,
The way he looks at you says more than you’ll ever know.
You didn’t have to stay, but you chose us every day,
And that’s the kind of love that never fades away.
Pre-Chorus
When life gets heavy, when the road gets rough,
You remind me that real love is more than enough.
Chorus
You stepped right in and never looked away,
Loved my little boy from the very first day.
Held my hand through the highs and the lows,
Gave us a kind of love that only heaven knows.
You’re patient, you’re gentle, you’re everything I need,
The strongest kind of man is the one who leads with love, not pride or greed.
Mat, every day I thank God you’re mine,
You gave my son a daddy and gave my heart a home to find.
Bridge
Some people spend a lifetime searching for what’s true,
I found forever the day I found you.
And if I had a thousand lives to live someday,
I’d choose you and our little family every single way.
Final Chorus
You stepped right in and became our world,
The man my son looks up to, the man who loves his girls.
You’re my best friend, my safe place, my dream come true,
And no matter where life takes us, I’ll always choose you.
Mat, I love you more than words could ever show,
Thank you for loving us more than you’ll ever know.
