The Whirlwind That Stayed

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There was a storm before the calm A quiet ache, a fading song Just me and my girls holding on Praying for a love that wouldn't run Then a whirlwind came rolling through With a smile that pulled the gray from blue [Chorus] You taught me life, you taught me love You taught me faith in things above Dedication, strong and true Everything I am, I learned from you "I'm always coming for you," you'd say And you've proved it every single day [Verse 2] Two years in, down on one knee Right there in our living room, you promised me A future built with steady hands A girl dad rising where another man Walked away — but you stepped in For Lexi and Makaylah, again and again [Chorus] You taught me life, you taught me love You taught me faith in things above Dedication, strong and true Everything I am, I learned from you "I'm always coming for you," you'd say And you've proved it every single day [Bridge] Sandy footprints, salty air The beach, the waves, you're always there You taught us how to live without fear Oh Mark Maselli, thank God you're here [Verse 3] Ten plus years, and we're still strong Built a beautiful life all along We saved each other, you and me Hope and family, love and grace A father's heart, a husband's place Happy Father's Day to the man we adore Mark, our forever, and so much more [Chorus] You taught me life, you taught me love You taught me faith in things above Dedication, strong and true Everything I am, I learned from you "I'm always coming for you," you'd say And you've proved it every single day [Outro] Mark, you're the answer to every prayer The fearless love we'll always share
