[Verse 1]

Just an hour and we'll be home

With my family that I chose

You're my family

[Verse 1]

And on the pavement still gripping the phone

You came and wrapped your arms around my soul

And we were shaking and you're so much a part of me

And so this is why I'm here

[Verse 3]

When we called you, you came so fast

And sat beside me while hours and days past

I'll always thank you for that

[Verse 4]

And there you were with your heart made of gold

So strong, the only thing holding us up

And we knew you would always be so close

And so this is why I'm here

[Verse 5]

And then there was you, you always made us laugh

And you would help us to find the right path

And there is no one as full of life

And so this is why I'm here
