Heaven Stands Five Feet Tall

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Some roads wind through broken places Through the dust of what we've lost But the heart keeps searching faces For the one worth every cost Then a light walked through my door And nothing was the same anymore [Chorus] Here's to the woman who changed it all Who showed me heaven stands five feet tall Who gave me a reason to start again Debbie Mary, my world began with you back then [Verse 2] They said the years had passed me by Too late to hold a baby's hand But Isabella changed the sky And made this old heart understand That new beginnings don't keep time And the sweetest fruit grows late on the vine [Chorus] Here's to the woman who changed it all Who showed me heaven stands five feet tall Who gave me a reason to start again Debbie Mary, my world began with you back then [Bridge] Your family opened up their arms And gave this wandering man a home You traded textbooks late at night Now look how far you've flown [Verse 3] Nine years of making every Sunday count Every road trip, every laugh, every kiss A giant brought down to his knees By this little woman's tenderness I know that time won't wait for me So we fill each day with legacy Every memory we make is a letter signed For Isabella to read when she needs a sign [Chorus] Here's to the woman who changed it all Who showed me heaven stands five feet tall Who gave me a reason to start again Debbie Mary, my world began with you back then [Outro] So happy Mother's Day, my beautiful wife Debbie Mary, you're the love of my life
