The Extra Mile

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Morning light on a quiet street, A steady heart, a rhythm deep. Some men run when the road gets rough, But you stay put, you're strong enough. Through every storm you found a way, Holding this family close each day. [Chorus] Oh, Dante, my love, my rock, my home, You never once let me stand alone. Grateful for the man you are, My steady light, my guiding star. Thank you for your fight, your grace, For the love that fills this place. [Verse 2] I've watched you carry so much weight, Three times the battle at the gate. And still you rose, still wore that smile, Walking slow but the extra mile. No complaints, just quiet grace, Strength and softness on your face. [Chorus] Oh, Dante, my love, my rock, my home, You never once let me stand alone. Grateful for the man you are, My steady light, my guiding star. Thank you for your fight, your grace, For the love that fills this place. [Bridge] So many hearts you've touched and healed, A man of honor, love revealed. When the fight tried to take its toll, You pushed forward, body and soul. [Verse 3] Years have passed and here we stand, Still your ring upon my hand. Thank you, baby, for it all, For rising up each time you'd fall. Keep being you, sweetheart, my own, The truest love I've ever known. [Chorus] Oh, Dante, my love, my rock, my home, You never once let me stand alone. Grateful for the man you are, My steady light, my guiding star. [Outro] Happy anniversary, my dear, Forever grateful you are here.
