[MUSIC INTRO] VERSE 1 Well, I couldn’t find the words when you came ’round Felt a kind of quiet in that old town You don’t raise your voice, don’t put on a show But you’ve got a way of letting her know You make her laugh when the night’s gone long Hold her steady when the world feels wrong Yeah, I see the way you stand so tall Like you already know the weight of it all VERSE 2 Southern Highlands boy, with solid roots Tending gardens, planting little truths Stories spinning in that clever head Cooking up love when the day is dead From pod - casts to books you write with care Every little gesture says you’re there And when the sun slides down behind the hill You take that walk, and your heart stands still CHORUS Thank you, Chester, you’re doing good Loving her the way a real man should Strong and kind, steady flame in your hand You don’t just talk, you help her stand Yeah, you carry light where the shadows fall Make the hard days easy, through it all Thank you, Chester, for loving her right For holding her close in the thick of night VERSE 3 Old back roads, dusty café doors Second-hand dreams and the market floors Laughing loud in a corner booth Still chasing hope like you always do When the evening winds whistle through the trees You take your walk, think on things with ease No matter how fast the world might run You always slow down for Danae, your one CHORUS Thank you, Chester, you’re doing good Holding her the way a real man should Through every season, every test You give your all, you give your best Make this family feel a little more whole With the light you bring, the love you show Thank you, Chester, for who you are For loving her with your whole heart OUTRO So here’s my truth as the night rolls long I’ll sing it soft in this little song Thank you, Chester… Yeah, you’re doing good [MUSIC OUTRO]
