Bless the Weight

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Forty summers down a country road, Carried laughter, carried heavy loads. First saw her at Willie's, neon light, Spinning slow on a Friday night. I knew right then I'd found my home, A heart I'd never walk alone. [Chorus] Through the storms and through the rain, Through the joy and through the pain, I'd choose her every single day. Hope still rises, love still stays, Strength in every word she prays — My forever, my sweet Kay. [Verse 2] We built a life with three little stars, One flies high now, watching from afar. We hold his memory like a flame, Whisper love each time we say his name. Now grandkids running 'round the yard, She loves them fierce, she loves them hard. [Chorus] Through the storms and through the rain, Through the joy and through the pain, I'd choose her every single day. Hope still rises, love still stays, Strength in every word she prays — My forever, my sweet Kay. [Bridge] If carrying her is a cross to bear, Then bless the weight, 'cause she's still there. Every step, every breath, every mile — Worth it all just to see her smile. [Verse 3] Kay, you're the bravest soul I know, A quiet fire, a steady glow. Healing comes in the songs we sing, In the morning coffee, the simple things. Forty years, and I'd do it twice, You're my country, you're my life. [Chorus] Through the storms and through the rain, Through the joy and through the pain, I'd choose her every single day. Hope still rises, love still stays, Strength in every word she prays — My forever, my sweet Kay. [Outro] Neon lights at Willie's still glow, Forty years and I love her so. Always, Kay — wherever we roam.
