We were on that old front porch Wind whistling through the screen door I was sittin' next to my old man Doc just gave us the news He might not make it through the cancer Down goes Superman But he surprised me With what he had to say He said, "Don't worry Son, I'm good either way God let me meet your mom Never thought I'd be so lucky And then on top of that He gave me kids that love me Yeah, even on your darkest days You never know what He's got prepared for giving So, until He calls you home again Just keep living" With some grace, he won that fight We were right there by his side When he rang that bell I saw him cry for the first time in my life "Don't miss the little things 'Cause you miss a lot that way" His words are gonna guide me For the rest of my days "God let me meet your mom Never thought I'd be so lucky And then on top of that He gave me kids that love me Yeah, even on your darkest days You never know what He's got prepared for giving So until He calls you home again Just keep living" Just keep living Just keep living "God let me meet your mom Never thought I'd be so lucky And then on top of that He gave me kids that love me Even on your darkest days You never know what He's got prepared for giving So until He calls you home again Just keep living Just keep living"
