Steven

[Verse 1]
Some love fades like summer light
Some love wanders out of sight
But ours was tied with steady hands
A sailor's knot that always stands
Those ocean eyes, that bluest blue
Still the first thing I run to

[Chorus]
Steven, you're the knot that holds
Every story that we've told
Best husband, father, grandpa too
Every good road leads to you
Thirty-eight years and still it's true
My heart is home with you

[Verse 2]
You learned those knots out on the sea
In Vietnam, a world from me
A son your mama held so dear
A big brother, always near
For your sister and your brother too
Then our boy, and he had you

[Chorus]
Steven, you're the knot that holds
Every story that we've told
Best husband, father, grandpa too
Every good road leads to you
Thirty-eight years and still it's true
My heart is home with you

[Bridge]
Now two little grandsons climb your knee
You tie the ropes so patiently
You give and give and keep no score
That's what this family's heart is for

[Verse 3]
Retired and wandering, you and me
All the way to Italy
The flight was long, you held my hand
Every mile just like we planned
Home again, the cats curl near
Steven, I'm so glad you're here

[Chorus]
You're the knot that always holds
Every story that we've told
Best husband, father, grandpa too
Every good road leads to you
Thirty-eight years and still it's true
My heart is home with you

[Outro]
Blue eyes, steady hands
Still tied, still true
Thirty-eight years, and I'd still choose you
Forever, I'm home with you
