Lyrics

I was the first to see your face
The first to touch your skin
Then placed you in your mother's arms
I heard you cry watched your eyes
Open to this world for the first time
When you wrapped one tiny hand around my finger
And nothing was ever the same
First steps and you scraped your knee
Riding circles on your first bike free
First catch in the backyard
The games we used to play
Before I knew it you were a man
Then one day I watched you drive away
I stood there smiling in the driveway
Pretending I'd be okay
I'd peek out through the window
Waiting for your headlights to shine
Then I'd finally close my eyes
Knowing you made it home tonight
Someday you'll know why
Why I worried all the time
Every Drive safe every Call me
You'd roll your eyes and walk away
But every time you walked out that door
You carried my heart with you
The years rolled on like seasons do
In the blink of an eye the years flew by
I still prayed every day for you
Like fathers always do
Then one day I watched you holding
A little baby of your own
I saw the way you checked the covers
Before you turned the lights down low
You kissed her head
Turned off the light
Looked back one extra time
Then I smiled and you finally knew
Everything I used to do
Every drive safe every call me
Was simply
I love you
Someday you'll reach to call me
Like you've done so many times
And when no one answers on the other end
You'll hear my voice one more time
I watched your little girl
Wrap one tiny hand around yours
And nothing was ever the same
Every drive safe every call me
Now those words belong to you
Every time she walks out that door
She carries your heart too
