Ain't No Sunset Like You

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Met her in that gym, freshman year Big blue eyes that pulled me near We lived five minutes down the road Funny how I never knew Carpooling turned to something true Two kids sharing every heavy load [Chorus] She's the steady hand, the quiet grace The one who holds this whole world in place Morning kisses, that little smirk she tries to hide She's the heartbeat, the backbone, the reason I survive And I thank God she's mine [Verse 2] Memphis nights with nothing but our names PetSmart checks and penny-counting games But you never once let go The day that plane hit the Hudson River cold You delivered us a son to hold Then two more came and made the picture whole [Chorus] She's the steady hand, the quiet grace The one who holds this whole world in place Morning kisses, that little smirk she tries to hide She's the heartbeat, the backbone, the reason I survive And I thank God she's mine [Bridge] We lost a child and felt the deepest dark But even broken, love rebuilt our heart Opened every door, adopted two more in You gave them all the love you've always given [Verse 3] Fixer-uppers and pecan trees Jeep rides catching summer breeze The sun hits her like she's made of gold She talks me down when the worry spins Believes in me through thick and thin And yeah, that smile ain't all she's holding — Lord, I know [Chorus] She's the steady hand, the quiet grace The one who holds this whole world in place Morning kisses, that little smirk she tries to hide She's the heartbeat, the backbone, the reason I survive And I thank God she's mine [Outro] Twenty years and every chapter's ours Babe, you're every answered prayer I just needed you to hear How much you mean to us standing here
