Stand On

Starin' into the middle of a prairie sky

With a blonde haired girl and the rest of our lives

Born a couple lucky ones

The lessons we did learn

But in the blink of an eye

You're lost with no return

So when the call came down the line

Her daddy's worst was yet to come

She stayed up all night cryin'

She's never lost anyone

And I'm a fool to believe just 'cause I walked this road before

You can't howl at the moon when you're stuck in the storm

So stand on

We're more than just skin and bone

You're everything I got

So stand on

We'll follow our own way home

'Cause you're everything I got

Well, it's easier to run than catch your breath from all the change

But for the first time in my life

I knew right where I would stay

Her daddy asked the question

Will he always be the one

And could I walk you down the aisle

Before my time has come

So stand on

We're more than just skin and bone

You're everything I got

So stand on

We'll follow our own way home

You're everything I got

Well, it takes a little time to let your love grow up true

But if I ran a million miles

Hope I run 'em down with you

We both know that I can't afford to buy you anything

But my grandpa gave my granny this little ruby ring

So stand on

'Cause we're more than just skin and bone

You're everything I got

So stand on

We'll follow our own way home

'Cause you're everything I got

So stand on

Yeah, you're everything I got

So stand on

Yeah, you're everything I got
