Two Hearts in Kevlar

Lyrics

[Verse 1] A badge, a prayer, a porch light on Two kids asleep before the dawn Dogs in the yard, horses in the field She held it all with hands of steel Then somewhere across a distant sea A soldier's letter found a key [Chorus] Faith brought them home, love made them stay Two hearts in kevlar found their way Through every storm, through every mile A family built on grit and smile Heaven knew what it had planned When she first reached out and took his hand [Verse 2] Four months of phone calls, ink on page A whispered hope across the waves He stepped off that plane, she knew his eyes No stranger there, just a sweet surprise Hiking trails and rivers wide Matthew walked in, and he stayed inside [Chorus] Faith brought him home, love made him stay Two hearts in kevlar found their way Through every storm, through every mile A family built on grit and smile Heaven knew what it had planned The day that Matthew took her hand [Bridge] Some souls don't meet, they just remember A flame that's burned since some September Bound forever, heart and bone Two heroes never walk alone [Verse 3] Now there's a cradle by the bed A little girl with dreams ahead A son, a daughter, and one on the way A house of love where shadows stay Matthew, you're the answered prayer The steady hand, the father there [Chorus] Faith brought you home, love made you stay Two hearts in kevlar found the way Through every storm, through every mile A family built on grit and smile Heaven knew what it had planned The day our Matthew took her hand [Outro] Happy Father's Day, my soldier true Eternity was made for you
