"Family Man" lyrics

"Family Man"

Higher mountains
Greener pastures
Ain't that what younger hearts go runnin' after
Ropin' rainbows
Is all you know
Till you find out there's a better pot of gold

You look at your life
Really look at your life
You look at your wife
And you look at your kids
You tell them goodnight
And tuck them in tight
Send up a prayer and you give them a kiss
Then you sit on a porch and you stare at the stars
Thanking the lord that she's there in your arms
And you understand
You'll never love nothing like family man

I have days I come unraveled
Pause for a minute pulling down that driveway gravel
Take a breath, feel the wind blow
Get caught up in the heaven happenin' through that kitchen window

You look at your life
Really look at your life
You look at your wife
And you look at your kids
You tell them goodnight
And tuck them in tight
Send up a prayer and you give them a kiss
Then you sit on a porch and you stare at the stars
Thanking the lord that she's there in your arms
And you understand
That you'll never love nothing like family man

Never love nothing like family man...

One day you'll look at your life
Really look at your life
You'll look at your wife
Both missing your kids
Wishing tonight, you could tuck them in tight
Like the ten million times the two of you did
Then you'll sit on the porch and stare at the stars
Thanking the lord with the break in your heart
And you understand
You'll never love nothing like family man
No, you'll never love nothing like family man
