Foundation

VERSE 1

We dug every hole
For every tree
That lines the front
Of that property
Oh what this earth
Would say if it could talk

Daddy would push the wheel barrow
While mama kept dinner on the stove
And we all helped out 
As brother learned to talk

CHORUS

His whole heart and every dream
He poured into the new concrete
giving life to his and mamas vows
With every board and every nail
He engraved their fairytale 
And he knew that it would never let her down

Oh our home is confirmation
Daddy built our foundation

VERSE 2 

Sweet summer camping
She was sixteen
When they met each other
And planned their dreams 
As they layed together 
Underneath the stars

A few years later 
And they were married
And within five more 
they had three babies
And they knew forever
They’d never be apart

Chorus
His whole heart and every dream
He poured into the new concrete
Giving live to his and mamas vows
With every bored and every nail
He engraved their fairytale 
And he knew that it would never let her down

Oh our home is confirmation
Daddy built our foundation

VERSE 3

A few months short of their thirteenth year
She held his hand as he layed there
And he said he loved her with everything he was 
He kissed each of us 
And we said goodbye
Then he looked into 
my mamas eyes
And he took his last breath

And it was all because

CHORUS

His whole heart and every dream
He poured into the new concrete
Giving life to what him and mama vowed
With every bored and every nail
He engraved our fairytale
And we knew that it would never let him down

Our love is confirmation
Daddy built our 
Foundation
