I remember the first day I met you   We were so young   You were a blessing and there was no guessing   You were the one      Love is so crazy, we had a baby   And said our vows   That's when you told me should anything happen   I can hear you now, you told me      If the sun comes up   And I'm not home, be strong   If I'm not beside you   Do your best to carry on      Tell the kids about me   When they're old enough to understand   Tell them that their daddy   Was a good man      First anniversary remember we chose a star   And as I stand under it   I can't help but wonder   If you see it where you are?      For whatever reason   We don't see the seasons change again   Go there with peace of mind   We'll meet on the other side   'Cause true love don't end      Oh baby if the sun comes up   And you're not home, I'll be strong   If you're not beside me   I'll do my best to carry on      I'll tell the kids about you   When they're old enough to understand   I'll tell them that their daddy   Was a good man      Two eyes looking up at me   Pointing to the picture like, where is he?   Ma, are you okay? What did the paper say?   To make you cry that way      It said your daddy lived for you   And your daddy died for you   And I'll do the same      Now baby if the sun comes up   And I'm not home, be strong   If I'm not beside you   Do your best to carry on      And tell your kids about me   When they're old enough to understand   Tell them that your daddy   Was a good man
