[Verse 1] When I walk through the front door First thing I always see Is a pair of your old work boots And they serve to remind me Of all the things I could say I love There's one above the rest There's nothin' you can't fix or build And that's what I have loved best Verse 2 I still love your dirty blue jeans And the grease beneath your nails The sweat stains on your old t-shirts And your worn-out leather belt From the very first day that we met You've been fixing broken parts And still today, I love your manly ways But never thought you mended hearts [Chorus] See, every now and then, I'll hear you call my name And find you working on Something broken once again You say, "Honey, I'll keep hangin' on But I can't hold on forever I need your extra pair of hands To put this back together." [Verse 3] When you were weak, I was strong Throughout your darkest hour But the troubled years took their toll And our sweet life turned sour I thought that we were too far gone Broken and beyond repair But the first thing I ever loved Is what saved us from despair [Chorus] See, every now and then, I'll hear you call my name And find you working on Something broken once again You say, "Honey, I'll keep hangin' on But I can't hold on forever I need your extra pair of hands To put this back together." [Bridge] Who would've ever guessed The thing I've always loved The way you've never given up When push has come to shove Would mean that you've been Holding us together all along Till I could lend a helping hand And mend our broken home [Chorus] See, every now and then, I'll hear you call my name And find you working on Something broken once again You say, "Honey, I'll keep hangin' on But I can't hold on forever I need your extra pair of hands To put this back together." [Outro] I still love your dirty blue jeans And the grease beneath your nails The sweat stains on your old t-shirts And your worn-out leather belt From the very first day that we met You've been fixing broken parts And still today, I love your manly ways But never thought you mended hearts [Tag] Funny how my favorite thing Restored my weary heart
