Lyrics
Description
[Verse 1]
The porch light’s still burning, though the sun’s been down for hours
I’m holding onto memories since I can’t hold yours in mine
Nightcrawler’s by the front door, he won’t leave his post
Just a loyal old pitbull, waiting on who he misses most
[Pre-Chorus]
He looks at me with heavy eyes, asking where you’ve been
And I tell him, "Buddy, soon... we’re gonna see her again."
[Chorus]
Oh, my sweet little girl, how I miss your face
I’m sending you my love across this empty space
They can build their walls and fences, they can try to tie my hands
But they’ll never break the promise of a father who still stands
You’re the light I'm following home, the best part of who I am.
[Verse 2]
I’m sorry for the shadows and the storms you’ve had to face
I’m sorry for the silence in this empty, quiet space
But don't you think for a second that your daddy’s giving in
I’m swinging every hammer just to bring you home again
[Chorus]
I’m tearing through the red tape and the mess they’ve put us through,
Because there ain't no wall they're building that can keep me back from you.
I see you in the grocery store, in every blonde-haired kid
I’m haunted by the "I love you’s" that we never got to get
But I’m counting down the heartbeats till I’ve won this uphill climb
And I can finally tell you that I loved you all the time.
[Chorus]
Oh, my sweet little girl, how I miss your face
I’m sending you my love across this empty space
Through the red tape and the heartache, I hope you understand
You’re the light I'm following home, the best part of who I am.
[Bridge]
So close your eyes, my angel, let the stars be like a map
Until the day you’re back asleep right here within my lap
I’m keeping your place ready, ‘til the battle has been won
I ain’t stopping, baby girl, until the coming home is done.
[Outro]
Yeah, we’re coming for you.
