Lyrics

I remember the first day I met you we were so young you were a blessing and there was no guessing you were the one Love is so crazy We had a baby and said our vows That's when you told me should anything happen I can hear you now You told me *Chorus* if the sun comes up and I'm not home be strong If I'm not beside you Do your best to carry on Tell the kids about me when they're old enough to understand tell them that their daddy was a good man First anniversary remember we chose a star And as i stand under it I can't help but wonder if You see it where you are For whatever reason We don't see the seasons Change again Go there with peace of mind We'll meet on the otherside Cause true Love don't end and baby if the sun comes up and you're not home I'll be strong If you're not beside me I'll do my best to carry on I'll tell the kids about you when they're old enough to understand I'll tell them that their daddy was a good man Two eyes looking up at me Pointing to the picture like where is he Mamma are you OK What did the paper say To make you cry that way it said your Daddy lived for you and your daddy died for you and I'll do the same Now baby if the sun comes up and I'm not home be strong If I'm not beside you Do your best to carry on Tell your kids about me when they're old enough to understand tell them that your daddy was a good man
