The Punk I Couldn't Forget

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I remember back in Hixon town Thought you were trouble hanging around But something in your smile caught my eye And I couldn't look away, couldn't walk on by Funny how the ones you least expect Turn out to be the ones you can't forget [Chorus] Here's to the life we built together Through the storms and the sunny weather Twenty-two years and counting strong Troy, you're the reason I sing this song You're the heartbeat, the steady ground The best love I have ever found [Verse 2] You work so hard, you never complain You carry us through the joy and pain Matthew and Curtis look up to you Every single thing you say and do Campfire nights beneath the stars Sandy beaches and old guitars [Chorus] Here's to the life we built together Through the storms and the sunny weather Twenty-two years and counting strong Troy, you're the reason I sing this song You're the heartbeat, the steady ground The best love I have ever found [Bridge] Twenty-eight years since you took my hand From that punk kid to my greatest man Down in Mexico or our own backyard You make it easy when the road gets hard [Verse 3] You put us first, that's just who you are The fun, the core, our northern star Humble and kind through every mile Our boys got their daddy's smile We've been through it all and here we stand Still holding on to your steady hand [Chorus] Here's to the life we built together Through the storms and the sunny weather Twenty-two years and counting strong Troy, you're the reason I sing this song You're the heartbeat, the steady ground The best love I have ever found [Outro] So here's to us, here's to you, Troy My husband, my heart, my pride and joy
