The Blood That Runs Through Me

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Came back to work, still healing slow, Almost forty years ago. The boss hired someone brand new that day, And you walked in and stole my breath away Two searching souls who finally knew I'd been waiting all my life for you. [Chorus] Oh Lindsey, you're the blood that runs through me, The better woman I've come to be. Through the craziness, the storms, the years, You dried my every falling tear. Two souls as one, that's what we are, My steady light, my morning star. [Verse 2] You held me tight when the phone would ring, When my folks were fighting everything. The crash, the loss, the darkest days, You opened our door, you paved the way. Through the storm that took my mom too soon, You stood beside me in that room. [Chorus] Oh Lindsey, you're the blood that runs through me, The better woman I've come to be. Through the craziness, the storms, the years, You dried my every falling tear. Two souls as one, that's what we are, My steady light, my morning star. [Bridge] You worry 'bout the years that come, The lines, the gray, the setting sun. Don't fear a thing, my darling Lucy dear — As long as we're together, love is near. [Verse 3] Our five little pups all know your song, Your sandwiches, where I belong. That high-pitched laugh when I'm a fool, The kindest heart, my golden rule. You never complained, you carried it all, You caught me, love, before the fall. [Chorus] Oh Lindsey, you're the blood that runs through me, The better woman I've come to be. Two souls as one beneath the stars, Forever yours, forever ours. [Outro] So rest your head, my Lucy, close to me, Whatever comes, I'll always be.
