Lyrics

Verse

I see the way you love my daughter

Like she was always part of you

You never tried to be a hero

You just showed up, stayed true

In the quiet moments I can feel it

This is more than just a phase

You don’t run from what is heavy

You lean in, you choose to stay

Pre-chorus

I’ve watched your actions match your words

Every promise kept in time

You didn’t just say you’d be here

You proved it, every night

Chorus

I’m grateful for the man you are

For the way you love so deep

I wanna build a family with you

Plant our roots and fall asleep

We’ve been through storms that changed us

Still you’re standing right by me

I believe the road ahead of us

Is gonna lead to better things

Verse

We’ve known a kind of loss that’s quiet

The kind that lives under the skin

Said goodbye before hello

To a life that might’ve been

But even in that broken chapter

You never let my hand go

Through the tears and unanswered prayers

You loved me soft, you loved me slow

Pre-chorus

You carried hope when mine was gone

Held the light when I went numb

That’s how I knew without a doubt

You’re the one

Chorus

I’m grateful for the man you are

For the strength you never show

I wanna build a family with you

Watch our love and children grow

We’ve been through fire, we’ve been through loss

Still your heart feels safe to me

I believe the future’s smiling

Like it knows what we can be

Bridge

I love your gifts, the way you shine

On the field, you come alive

And when you sing, the world goes quiet

Your voice gets under my skin

I love the way you pull me closer

The way your lips know mine

Our intimacy feels honest

Like nothing’s forced, it’s all aligned

Chorus

I’m thankful for the love we found

For the past we overcame

Every promise that you kept

Made me trust again

If tomorrow brings us chapters

We don’t know how to read

I still believe with all my heart

The future’s gonna be kind to we

Outro

So here’s to what we’re building now

Through the scars, the joy, the tears

I don’t need a perfect story

Just you with me through the years
