The Night of Three Hugs

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I came home from a desert war With a heart too tired to feel anymore Walls built high, no light could break Carrying weight only soldiers ache Then a smile walked in like a Sunday morn Hair like gold and a heart reborn [Chorus] Oh, Blue Eyes, you saved this man Pulled me up with your steady hands Gave me faith when I had none Taught my soul to see the sun In a world that's hard and gray You're the grace that lights my way [Verse 2] Six long weeks 'til I found the nerve Three sweet hugs was all I deserved Both of us wanted that first kiss But my walls weren't ready for this You waited gentle, you waited true Tore them down with the love of you [Chorus] Oh, Blue Eyes, you saved this man Pulled me up with your steady hands Gave me faith when I had none Taught my soul to see the sun In a world that's hard and gray You're the grace that lights my way [Bridge] Kara, you brought God back home Showed me I was never alone Mother, lover, my truest friend The rock I'll lean on 'til the end [Verse 3] You proposed when I came back through that door Stronger than any uniform I wore Raising babies with a mother's might Loving deeper every single night Kara, every prayer I breathe Starts and ends with thanks for thee [Chorus] Oh, Blue Eyes, you saved this man Pulled me up with your steady hands Gave me faith when I had none Taught my soul to see the sun In a world that's hard and gray You're the grace that lights my way [Outro] Blonde hair, Blue Eyes, my Kara mine Peace and love 'til the end of time
