You Hung My Moon

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some stories start and stop and start again Some love takes time to find its way back in Seventeen years between hello and hey But when it's right the heart knows what to say College kids who didn't know the plan That life would bring them back to where it all began [Chorus] Lil James, you hung my moon, my stars, my sun You're the pretty, funny, smart and generous one From the city lights to country roads you came And nothing's been the same since Lil James [Verse 2] Left that bachelor life in the ATL Traded Friday nights for raising boys so well Cam and Cason running through the yard Jenna off at college making us so proud Butch, Atreyu, Vanille and Charlie too Algernon and all this zoo we built with you [Chorus] Lil James, you hung my moon, my stars, my sun You're the pretty, funny, smart and generous one From the city lights to country roads you came And nothing's been the same since Lil James [Bridge] "My Family Built This Country," "My Father is Gay" Only you could make Big Mel laugh that way First date to I love you, married by September Every single day's a day I'll remember [Verse 3] We walked through storms apart before we walked as one Had to grow and learn before we were done Now forty-five and shining like you're twenty-two Soul mates don't expire, baby, that's the truth Through the hard times you became my solid ground It was always you, I'm glad we both came round [Chorus] Lil James, you hung my moon, my stars, my sun You're the pretty, funny, smart and generous one From the city lights to country roads you came And nothing's been the same since Lil James [Outro] Here's to a long life of love and laughter too This hectic, beautiful life I chose with you
