Quiet Hero of Our Days

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a quiet kind of strength In the way some men show up Steady hands and open hearts Pouring love into a cup I watched a father hold his girl Four years old and feather-light And I knew right then and there This was a man who'd do things right [Chorus] Oh Dennis, you're the legacy Of every gentle thing you do Through the cards we've dealt and dreams we've built There's no one quite like you A father, husband, and a friend Standing tall in honesty Oh Dennis, you're my new beginning And the best of family [Verse 2] You took my boys beneath your wing Like they were always meant to be Built a home from patient love A quiet kind of bravery "That makes sense," you'd softly say When the world spun wild and strange And somehow every storm we faced Would settle in your steady frame [Chorus] Oh Dennis, you're the legacy Of every gentle thing you do Through the cards we've dealt and dreams we've built There's no one quite like you A father, husband, and a friend Standing tall in honesty Oh Dennis, you're my new beginning And the best of family [Bridge] Stand in your integrity That's the song you taught us all Now a grandfather, still the same Bodhi waiting at the door [Verse 3] Thank you for your patient ways For the poker nights we share For the courage that you carry And the love that's everywhere Happy Father's Day, my love To the man who chose us too Every chapter, every hand Has been better dealt with you [Outro] Oh Dennis, you're our home The quiet hero of our days With all my heart, I love you so Happy Father's Day
