Let's start it here

Back in 19 seventy sumthin'

I can't pin down the year

When the romance wasn't dead

And love still stood for something

There was a girl who had lost her way

She blushed red when he came over

And they danced the night away

And he sung as he drove her home and

It was there that she would say

If I could then I would save you

Then he smiled and turned away

In six weeks they're sayin' I do

Oh love just don't go that way no more

And like the seed becomes the tree

We take shape of a family

We grow and we change

And face the rain like you wouldn't believe

And through it all

We're standing tall

And I just don't say it enough

If not for you no we wouldn't be standing at all

And now it's 19 ninety-sumthin'

How the hell did we end up here

Four kids and a few jobs later

And the pictures fill the pages

It's been hard oh it's been hard

But you'd be a fool to give it up

'Cause you know that what we've got

Is bigger than the two of us

It's been hard oh it's been hard

But it's bigger than the two of us

And I will hold you in my arms

When you feel like givin' up

Love just don't go that way no more

And like the seed becomes the tree

We take shape of a family

We grow and we change

And face the rain like you wouldn't believe

And through it all

We're standing tall

And I just don't say it enough

If not for you no we wouldn't be standing at all

And now it's 2 thousand and sumthin'

We made it here my dear

Grandkids and the mortgage paid off

Is this what dreams are made of

'Cause baby we made it

Yeah baby you saved me

But nothing could save him

From the ambulance that day

When he went away

The heart attack was sharp

He didn't feel no pain

If you saw him now then what

What would you say

I love you and I miss you

I owe you everything

And I hope you know you saved me

Oh mother

Mother please don't cry

'Cause you know I miss him too

I didn't even say goodbye

And though he's gone I know he's gone

He lives on in all of us

And I will hold you when you cry

Because that's what he would have done

Yeah that's what he would have done

Yeah that's what he would have done

It's been hard oh it's been hard

But he's a part of all of us

And we will hold you when you cry

Because that's what family does
