Watching the Green Grass Grow

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Down in Key West on a springtime day A saint of families heard him pray He took a knee, asked for forever Two young hearts who'd walk together Dreamed of having kids one day Watching green grass sway [Chorus] Here's to the man, the steady kind The laughter, the love, the open mind A father, a husband, a guiding light Holding our world together tight Through all the seasons, come what may We're singing your song today [Verse 2] Blessed in a driveway, the journey began Pebble Hill held a family's plan Matt and Liam, Brennan too Then sweet Sarah made us new Three little boys and a baby girl Paul, you gave us the whole world [Chorus] Here's to the man, the steady kind The laughter, the love, the open mind A father, a husband, a guiding light Holding our world together tight Through all the seasons, come what may We're singing your song today [Bridge] Darth Whack-a-Mole with a glowing sword Mr. Announcer the kids adored Coach and griller, the smart home king Joy in every little thing [Verse 3] Now our hair has turned to gray The kids have all gone their own way Still at Pebble Hill we stand Greenest lawn across the land You grew it tall, you grew them true Paul, there's no one quite like you [Chorus] Here's to the man, the steady kind The laughter, the love, the open mind A father, a husband, a guiding light Holding our world together tight Through all the seasons, come what may We're singing your song today [Outro] Two rocking chairs, the evening glow Just watching that green grass grow
