Stand For You Both

[Intro] Dust settles on the porch rail Crickets start their evening song [Verse 1] I see you rock him while he sleeps Your shoulders heavy from the weight You don't have to carry this alone I knelt down here today to stay [Verse 2] I ain't here for just the good days I ain't run when thunder rolls This ain't some promise made in moonlight This is written deep down in my bones [Chorus] I will stand for you and that boy Every sunrise every storm I will give my last damn dollar I will stand between you and harm There ain't nothing I won't carry Ain't no line I won't cross This promise don't die tomorrow It lasts long after I am gone [Verse 3] I'll teach him throw a proper curveball I'll hold you when the bad nights come I'll fix the fence and mend the roof I'll love you both when I'm old and numb [Pre-Chorus] You don't need to be strong always You can rest your weight on me [Chorus] I will stand for you and that boy Every sunrise every storm I will give my last damn dollar I will stand between you and harm There ain't nothing I won't carry Ain't no line I won't cross This promise don't die tomorrow It lasts long after I am gone [Bridge] Men say lots of empty words But I mean every single one This is forever, this is real This is what I was born to do (Instrumental Solo) [Final Chorus] I will stand for you and that boy Every sunrise every storm I will give my last damn dollar I will stand between you and harm There ain't nothing I won't carry Ain't no line I won't cross This promise don't die tomorrow It lasts long after I am gone [Outro ] Right here. Always. I'm never going away
