For You - Jason Myers

Verse 1 Empty shoes by the doorway, silence in the room Half the week it’s laughter, the other half it’s gloom I’m burning every candle just to keep the night away But I’d go through the fire if it helps you see the day Pre-Chorus I’m no saint, I’ve been broken But I swear these hands are open Chorus I’ll love you harder than the pain you’ve known I’ll build a home from the hurt you’ve shown Every tear you’ve cried just carves the proof Being your dad is the best I’ll ever do When the world feels heavy, I’ll carry it too For you, for you Verse 2 Love to cook your dinners, tie the shoes you wear We stumble through the mornings, but you know I’ll always care I’m chasing down the sunlight through the shadows of the past Praying what I give you is a love that’s gonna last Pre-Chorus I may fall, but I’m trying Every day I’m still fighting Chorus I’ll love you harder than the pain I’ve known I’ll build a home from the hurt I’ve shown Every tear I’ve cried just carves the proof Being your dad is the best I’ll ever do When the world feels heavy, I’ll carry it too For you, for you both Bridge Even when your gone, your laughter echoes through our home I count the hours down until you message on the phone I can’t change the past, but I’ll hold you tight You’re my reason, my faith, my light Final Chorus I’ll love you harder than the pain we’ve known I’ll build a home from the hurt we’ve shown Every scar we wear just shows the truth Being your dad is the best I’ll ever do When the world feels heavy, I will carry it too For you, for you
