The Floorboards Beneath Our Feet

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A message lit my screen one night Giggles down the hall, my heart took flight Brother of a friend, a chance hello Little did I know where this would go Breakfast in the rain, November skies Butterflies, and love behind our eyes [Chorus] You are the roof above our heads The floorboards where our love is spread Through every storm, through every mile You are home, you are home The steady hands, the gentle eyes The quiet strength that never dies [Verse 2] Two weeks apart while you chased your dream We held the line, we held the seam Then came a heartbeat, small and true The one that proved how much you'd do You wanted us, you wanted more A love like none you'd known before [Chorus] You are the roof above our heads The floorboards where our love is spread Through every storm, through every mile You are home, you are home The steady hands, the gentle eyes The quiet strength that never dies [Bridge] Kirk, you've been my home for nearly ten I've never loved a soul like this, my friend And what makes me love you even more You're their home too, forever sure [Verse 3] Jackson on the mower by your side Emily, your princess, full of pride Gabriel runs the moment you walk through Identical smiles, he's so like you Cheerios on floors, three in our bed Daddy's love wraps every word you've said [Chorus] You are the roof above our heads The floorboards where our love is spread Through every storm, through every mile You are home, you are home The steady hands, the gentle eyes The quiet strength that never dies [Outro] Kirk, you are home, you are loved Endlessly grateful, sent from above Your wife and babies, always true Happy Father's Day to you
