Strangers In A Crowded Mall

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some things you can't explain away How two strangers cross a crowded space A moment in a busy mall Became the start of having it all A slow and steady kind of grace That built a home, that built a place [Chorus] You are the rock we lean upon The steady heart that keeps us strong Through every mile, through every year You make the whole world feel less unclear And I thank God you're standing here [Verse 2] Fifteen years and still I see That girl who took a chance on me Hawaii sunsets, salt and sand The first time that you held my hand Now Austin's twelve and Bella's eight And you're the reason they turned out great Sylvia, you gave them everything [Chorus] You are the rock we lean upon The steady heart that keeps us strong Through every mile, through every year You make the whole world feel less unclear And I thank God you're standing here [Bridge] You taught me patience when I couldn't wait You taught me love don't have to hesitate You always say that you're so lucky things work out But darling, I'm the lucky one, no doubt [Verse 3] From nature hikes at Frenchman's Lake To every road we chose to take Windows down and radio on Sylvia, with you it's never gone wrong You're the mother every child deserves The wife beyond what I have words And every single day I pray you know [Chorus] You are the rock we lean upon The steady heart that keeps us strong Through every mile, through every year You make the whole world feel less unclear And I thank God you're standing here [Outro] Sylvia, on this Mother's Day I just needed you to hear me say You are everything and more You're what this whole life is for
