Lyric

Breakfast table, early light

Through the steam, a sleepy sight

Hear your voice so soft and low

Just a simple "good morning" hello

Hiding scars behind a smile

Holding hands for just a while

The warmth you give, I still can feel

Every touch is something real

No matter how far I may roam

This is where I call my home

A silver thread that never breaks

Keeping us for heaven's sake

On the days when life felt dry

You were there, my "reason why"

When I was lost in the dark of night

You called my name and brought the light

So right now, I make this vow

Deep in my heart, I see it now

I’m never gonna let it go

This connection we’ve come to know

My family, I can’t afford to lose

The kind of love I’d always choose

No matter what the world may bring

Our future is a certain thing

My family, I’ll never let you go

Hand in hand, we’re gonna grow

I’m not alone, no, not today

Right by your side, I’m gonna stay

Old snapshots in a dusty frame

A few more wrinkles, but we're the same

Look at the eyes, it’s plain to see

The same reflection in you and me

Sometimes we clash, sometimes we fight

But we find our way back in the night

A simple "sorry" clears the air

Reminding us how much we care

The strength you gave me through the years

I wanna give it back, dry your tears

To protect you now, it’s my turn

With all the lessons that I’ve learned

You taught me what my tears are for

When I felt weak, you gave me more

Ou took me in, you understood

Accepted me for all my good

So right now, I make this vow

Deep in my heart, I see it now

I’m never gonna let it go

This connection we’ve come to know

My family, I can’t afford to lose

The kind of love I’d always choose

No matter what the world may bring

Our future is a certain thing

My family, I’ll never let you go

Hand in hand, we’re gonna grow

I’m not alone, no, not today

Right by your side, I’m gonna stay

Even if our paths should part

The destination’s in the heart

Every time we trip or fall

We’ll hear each other’s voices call

Greater than a giant dream

Is the warmth that makes us beam

I’ll hold it tight and walk the line

This precious family of mine

My family, I can’t afford to lose

The kind of love I’d always choose

No matter what the world may bring

Our future is a certain thing

My family, I’ll never let you go

Hand in hand, we’re gonna grow

I’m not alone, no, not today

Right by your side, I’m gonna stay

My family, I’m right here now

Through this song, I take a vow

To keep you safe and keep
