Through My Eyes, Gail

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some folks chase the sunrise, Some keep the porch light on, Down in a college gym basement I saw you, then you were gone. But watching you walk away that day, I knew I'd found my home. [Chorus] Oh Gail, I wish you'd see yourself The way I see you every day, The rock our whole family leans on, The light that never fades away. It's been a leap of faith, my love, And I'd jump again with you. [Verse 2] We said I do at twenty-three, Just two young hearts and a dream, You held on through the hardest times, Best coach I've ever seen. Three kids, a chocolate chip cookie jar, Team Cookiedough, me and you. [Chorus] Oh Gail, I wish you'd see yourself The way I see you every day, The rock our whole family leans on, The light that never fades away. It's been a leap of faith, my love, And I'd jump again with you. [Bridge] Now you're caring for your mama, Putting everyone else first, When you're tired, just lean on me, love, You've got this, and I've got you. [Verse 3] At sixty, a Christmas tree farm, Another leap, another vow, Rows of evergreens on the hillside, Your smile lights them up somehow. You keep me grounded, keep me steady, The kindest soul I've ever known. [Chorus] Oh Gail, I wish you'd see yourself The way I see you every day, The rock our whole family leans on, The light that never fades away. It's been a leap of faith, my love, And I'd leap again with you. [Outro] You're the rock, you're the reason, You've got this, and I've got you.
