About This Song


Song about circunstance about my family 10 years ago

My two years old girl is the light of my world
She was chasin’ her brother when she fell down the stairs
I thought I would die when I heard her cry
And I thought of how life just sometimes isn’t fair
I expected the worst when I picked her off the floor
Those two little bruises could’ve been so much more

Chorus
Then I realized, I was mesmerized
By all the love around me, it was blinding to see
No more searchin’ behind lookin’ for signs
All I need can be found right here right now
’Cause the only thing that’s precious to me
Is my family

Mom and dad were out drivin’, never saw it comin’
The kid had been drinkin’ and he sideswiped their car
Daddy’s glasses were broken when the airbag exploded
Just a scratch on his nose, mama didn’t have a mark
They were laughin’ and cryin’ when they called me to say
“I guess somebody up there was lookin’ our way”

Repeat chorus

Bridge
It’s a lesson taught by life
Find what matters and hold tight
And cling with all your might

Repeat chorus
