A Second Beating Heart

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Two lost souls out on a winding road, Both carrying more than we could hold. Then somehow the map led me to you, A wild kind of love, exciting and new. We built a home where two roads met, The best thing life would ever let. [Chorus] Oh Jim, my hand still fits in yours, Through every storm we weathered and endured. Older, wiser, happier now, We made it here, somehow, somehow. Ready to grow old, side by side, You're the reason my heart's alive. [Verse 2] We blended boys with hair of flame, Brandon, Brett, and Brandt by name. Red-headed pups underneath our feet, Little King Charles made the picture complete. A house of love and stubborn grace, Every freckle, every laughing face. [Chorus] Oh Jim, my hand still fits in yours, Through every storm we weathered and endured. Older, wiser, happier now, We made it here, somehow, somehow. Ready to grow old, side by side, You're the reason my heart's alive. [Bridge] They gave you a second beating heart, And oh how it softened every part. Now mine belongs to you alone, The strongest love I've ever known. [Verse 3] We faced the fight, the fever, the fear, And still we're standing, year after year. Your big heart, it holds me tight, A steady flame in the darkest night. Jim Knott, you're my greatest prize, I see forever in your eyes. [Chorus] Oh Jim, my hand still fits in yours, Through every storm we weathered and endured. Older, wiser, happier now, We made it here, somehow, somehow. Ready to grow old, side by side, You're the reason my heart's alive. [Outro] Two lost souls who found their way, Still falling deeper every day.
