Lyric

Quiet morning light fills the air

A new day’s calling my name

Wearing a suit a little too big

Trying not to look afraid

There were days I fell and cried

Nights I almost gave it all up

You were always there for me

Without saying a word

I took it all for granted

That welcome home at the door

Now I know what it truly meant

It’s echoing in my heart

You never told me to be strong

You never asked me to pretend

You just believed in me

And that was everything

The reason I made it this far

Are the hands that never let me go

Every time I lost my way

Your love showed me the road

I don’t know how to say it right

But today I wanna say

Thank you

I’m proud to be your son

Your awkward words back then

And the reasons you were strict

Now I finally

I can understand

The meaning of being free

The weight of responsibility

You taught me without words

Just by the way you lived

No matter how far I strayed

There was always a place to return

That place was home

Right here

The future I’m walking into now

I know it won’t be easy

Still I can hold my head up high

You’re standing right behind me

Even if I fall or lose my way

I’ll keep moving on

With the name you gave me

Carried in my heart

I’m not perfect not yet

But I won’t run away

From this day forward

I choose my own way

The reason I made it this far

Is more love than I can say

Deeper than any words

You showed me how to live this life

And when the day comes

I can protect someone too

I’ll pass this love along

Just like you did for me

It’s a little embarrassing to say

But from the bottom of my heart

Thank you

This is where I start
