The Porch Light in Your Eyes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] There's a quiet kind of strong In the way you carry on Through the years, the joy, the rain You've been steady all the same Hands that work, a heart that stays Through the wild and tender days [Chorus] Thank you for the love you give For the life we get to live For the children, for the home For the road we've walked alone Through the highs, beneath the lows You're the truest love I know [Verse 2] There's a porch light in your eyes Always burning, always wise You've forgiven, you've held on When I thought that we'd be gone And our babies know your name As the safest place from rain [Chorus] Thank you for the love you give For the life we get to live For the children, for the home For the road we've walked alone Through the highs, beneath the lows Barry, you're the love I know [Bridge] Even the dogs run to your chair 'Cause they feel the gentle there Every paw and every hand Knows you're a steady man [Verse 3] Barry, here's to new sunrise To the dreams still in your eyes To the family we've made And the promises that stayed Father, partner, friend, and more Everything I'm thankful for [Chorus] Thank you for the love you give For the life we get to live For our children, for our home For the road we'll never roam Through the highs, beneath the lows Barry, you're the love I know [Outro] Happy Father's Day, my love You're the answer to enough
