Hand In Hand From Here

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A swipe, a chance, a Tuesday night A comedian, a bar, a nervous smile He thought she was out of his league But something sparked across his eyes I asked him for a hug goodnight Out in the parking lot, it just felt right [Chorus] Hand in hand through the rest of our days Growing old in a thousand ways Through the laughter and the fire's glow You're the love I didn't know The universe was saving me just for you Everything I need, my whole life through [Verse 2] An awkward kiss, he almost walked away But bowling lanes and a truck beneath the stars Making out like two teenagers Trading every story, every scar His aunt sat in my chair for thirty years Her stories brought his family near [Chorus] Hand in hand through the rest of our days Growing old in a thousand ways Through the laughter and the fire's glow You're the love I didn't know The universe was saving me just for you Everything I need, my whole life through [Bridge] Tiana saw your picture, said he's the one After fifty years the waiting's done A single mama finally found the one [Verse 3] Steve, you taught me what it's like to feel safe Melted all the walls I built in place Campfire nights and worlds I'd never seen Six kids, blended lives, and everything between Your kindness heals the parts that ached Your smile's the promise nothing else could make [Chorus] Hand in hand through the rest of our days Growing old in a thousand ways Through the laughter and the fire's glow Steve, you're the love I didn't know The universe was saving me just for you Everything I need, my whole life through [Outro] Let's travel this world and never let go Steve, forever starts right now, I know
