Folded Twenties and Blue Eyes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Blue eyes and a tender heart A laugh that could light up any room He loved the Lord, he loved his girl And I was his from the moment I knew We grew in faith, we grew in grace Side by side through twenty-eight years [Chorus] Love like that don't fade away It lives in every prayer we pray Through every storm we held on tight His love still shines like heaven's light And nothing's gonna take that away [Verse 2] He'd wait up late into the night Just to know that you were safe at home Those folded twenties in your hand His quiet way of saying you're my own A father's love, so strong and true Candace, every bit was meant for you [Chorus] Love like that don't fade away It lives in every prayer we pray Through every storm we held on tight His love still shines like heaven's light And nothing's gonna take that away [Bridge] We were knit together through the trials Held by faith and laughter and devotion And though he's resting now beyond the miles His love still moves like an ocean [Verse 3] Best friends walking hand in hand A family blessed beyond what words can say Candace, he adored the ground you walk And I see his smile in your face every day So carry this legacy inside your heart He's with us still, we're never far apart [Chorus] Love like that don't fade away It lives in every prayer we pray Through every storm we held on tight His love still shines like heaven's light And nothing's gonna take that away [Outro] Candace, don't you ever forget You made our lives so happy, so full of love 'Til we meet again in heaven above
