The Girl With Kind Eyes

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Came home from a faraway shore Boots still heavy from a distant war Found a quiet I'd been searching for In a girl with kind eyes at the door She didn't ask me where I'd been Just held my hand and let me in [Chorus] She's the calm when the world won't slow She's the light guiding me back home Through every season, every mile She's my forever, she's my smile Oh, I thank the heavens up above For the gift of her steady love [Verse 2] Eighty-nine, I made her my bride Two little blessings by our side Followed me clear to German ground Held it together when I wasn't around Rocked the babies, dried the tears Stood like a rock through the hardest years [Chorus] She's the calm when the world won't slow She's the light guiding me back home Through every season, every mile She's my forever, she's my smile Oh, I thank the heavens up above For the gift of her steady love [Bridge] Oh Tracey, you're the song I sing You're the every little thing The peace I prayed for, the grace I found The truest love this heart has known [Verse 3] 2001, I hung up the green She walked me through a world unseen Civilian roads, a brand new start She kept the rhythm of my heart Tracey, darling, you're my home Every road I walk, I'm not alone [Chorus] She's the calm when the world won't slow She's the light guiding me back home Through every season, every mile She's my forever, she's my smile Oh, I thank the heavens up above For Tracey and her steady love [Outro] Just because, I had to say I'd choose you again today Tracey, my forever, my whole heart
