Story Behind the Song
After 13 years of marriage we are finally a family.
Lyrics
Don't always do things right
But I sleep fine at night
I've got my feet firmly on the ground
And I ain't never hurt no one
I go to work each day
Sundays I kneel and pray
And I thank the Lord for sending me
A lighting bolt, right between the eyes
Just my wife and me
And little Emma makes three
I've got myself a family
And that's all right with me
With every page I turn
With every step I learn
All that matters, so plain to see
She's smiling up at me
And it's a love that stays
It's daddy come and play
Read me a book, sing me a song
We've waited, oh so long
Well, you can run your race
Yes, you can have first place
Act like a friend then stab me in the back
It doesn't much matter to me
Well if it's all the same
I no longer play that game
Gather all the trophies that you can carry
And jump, right in the deep blue sea
With every page I turn
With every step I learn
All that matters, so plain to see
She's smiling up at me
And it's a love that stays
It's daddy come and play
Read me a book, sing me a song
We've waited, oh so long
Just my wife and me
And little Emma makes three
I've got myself a family
And that's all right with me
