"Good Man" lyrics

"Good Man"

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
And, 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?"
Mamma, are you OK
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
Tell your kids about me
When they're old enough to understand
Tell them that your daddy was
A good man
