Lyrics

We were young and in love, with the world at our feet
Then one day we found out, we'd soon be three
I held your hand, you smiled so wide
A baby on the way, couldn’t be more alive
We’d fight over nothing, and laugh at the sound
But through it all, our love would always be found
We’d hold that baby close, teach him how to dream
As life moved so fast, we’d make it all seem like a perfect scene
Oh, we danced through the highs and the lows
Through every tear, every smile that we’d know
And in the end, love would see us through
We had a family, and I had you

He took his first step, and we cheered him on
The world was his playground, so bright and so strong
Then school doors opened, and we watched him leave
A little boy, now chasing dreams we couldn’t conceive
His first love came, hearts skipping beats
And we held him close, when he asked us for advice
Then prom night came, and we cried on the porch
He looked so grown, like he’d been here before
Oh, we danced through the highs and the lows
Through every fear, every hope that he’d show
And in the end, love would see us through
We had a family, and I had you
Then the day came, he left for the last time
And I saw the tears fall from your eyes
I held you tight, told you it’s alright
But my heart was breaking too, on that night

Years passed, the days grew long
And now here I am, holding on
In the quiet of the room, I see your face
I can feel your touch, it’s all a grace
We lived a life, full of joy and pain
I’ve loved you well, and you’ve loved me the same
Now I’m lying here, but I’ve never felt more whole
I’ll take my last breath, with you in my soul
Oh, we danced through the highs and the lows
Through every breath, through the time that we chose
And in the end, love saw us through
I had a family, and I had you
Then my eyes opened, and I was twenty again
The baby was never born, just a dream in the end
And I felt the weight, the pain in my chest
For the love we never had, and the life I had guessed
You and I, we couldn’t make it through
The love we lost, left us broken in two
And now I sit here, drowning in whiskey’s shine
Staring at your picture, wishing our family survived.
Oh, we danced through the highs and the lows
Through every wish, through every dream that we chose
And in the end, love couldn’t see us through
But I’ll still dream of the life I had with you.
