Dana

[Verse 1]
There's a porch light burning on a quiet street
Some love is loud, some love just stays
Through the long nights and the longer days
Twenty-six years, three boys and a home
You held it all while I was gone

[Chorus]
You stood by me when the road ran far
You kept the faith, you kept my heart
Through every mile and every storm
Oh Dana, you're the reason I came home
The better half of me, I'll never stand alone

[Verse 2]
I packed my boots and shipped out again
You raised three boys to be good men
Phone calls crackling across the sea
You always found the words for me
You never once asked me to stay
You held the fort and lit the way

[Chorus]
You stood by me when the road ran far
You kept the faith, you kept my heart
Through every mile and every storm
Oh Dana, you're the reason I came home
The better half of me, I'll never stand alone

[Bridge]
When I hiked those Appalachian miles
Or drove cross country, you just smiled
You never asked me why, you just said go
And you were waiting when the road turned home

[Verse 3]
Now the boys are grown, the house is still
You're the one I talk to, always will
Dependable as the morning sun
My strength, my comfort, my only one
Dana, every road I ever knew
Was only worth it coming back to you

[Chorus]
You stood by me when the road ran far
You kept the faith, you kept my heart
Through every mile and every storm
Oh Dana, you're the reason I came home
The better half of me, I'll never stand alone

[Outro]
Twenty-six years, I'd do it all again
You're the better half of me, my love, my friend
