I remember the first day I met you
We were so young
You were a blessing, there was no guessing
You were the one
Love was so crazy, we had a baby
And said our vows
That's when you told me should anything happen
I can hear you now
You told me...
"If the sun comes up
And I'm not home, be strong
If I'm not beside you
Do your best to carry on
Tell the kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that their daddy was a good man."

First anniversary, remember we
Chose a star
But as I stand under it
I can't help but wonder if you see it where you are
For whatever reason
We don't see the seasons change again
Go there with peace of mind
We'll meet on the other side
'Cause true love don't end
Now baby..
If the sun comes up
And you're not home I'll be strong
If you're not beside me
I'll do my best to carry on
I'll tell the kids about you
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that their daddy was a good man

Two eyes, looking up at me
Pointing to the picture like "where is he?"
"Mama are you okay, what did the paper say
To make you cry that way?"
It said, "your daddy lived for you
Your daddy died for you
And I'll do the same."
Now baby if the sun comes up
And I'm not home be strong
If I'm not besdie you
Do your best to carry on
Tell your kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that your daddy was a good man...
