Lyrics
Description
Keys in hand, coffee gone cold, the kids are calling from the lawn,
Gear bags line the hallway, seatbelts click, the radio turns on,
Nicki’s braid in the rearview, small voices fill the air,
Headlights stitch the dust to dawn, we’re moving everywhere,
Late night laughter in the minivan, a chorus on repeat,
Receipts and sticky fingerprints, the soundtrack of our feet,
We hustle through the morning rush, but there’s a mercy in the mess,
These little ragged moments hold a kind of happiness.
Brazilian jujitsu on the mats, taped up hands and grit,
Swim team evenings, lanes like stories, chlorine on a towel′s fit,
Gymnastics chalk on Ava′s palms, reach past rusted bars,
Rock faces, rope climbs, breath held tight and racing hearts,
BMX on dirt that sings beneath the tires, speed and grin and flight,
Camping under constellations, mud streaks on the truck at night,
Fishing mornings, coffee steaming, sunrise open and wide,
Hunting dawns with hush and hush, footprints where we hide.
These are the days we′ll wish we could get back,
Rushing through the chaos, counting every track,
We′re living the dream, we don′t yet see this crazy life,
Yeah, this crazy life is the good life,
These small wild hours while the world keeps rushing past,
We hold on tight because we know they won′t last,
We′re living the dream, we don′t yet see this crazy life,
Yeah, this crazy life is the good life.
Car horns and practice routes, throwing gear in garage light,
Learning to dance in kitchen floors, tired feet and smiles at night,
Half eaten dinners, plates askew, we fall to laughing loud,
Hunter′s grin, Ava′s bedtime song, Nikki whispers soft and proud,
Hurry but slow, we load the van, a chorus of shoes and keys,
Headlights at dusk, we chase horizons, pack sandwiches and dreams,
Midnight high fives by the tent, flashlight wink and then,
We crash into tomorrow and do it all again.
I blink and the pictures blur, these minutes are ours to keep,
The baby photos fade to life, live loud, not tucked away in sleep,
Ava′s chalk on the dashboard, Hunter′s guitar tight and neat,
Nikki tucks a braid, we breathe, we press our palms against the heat,
Slow it down, feel the laughter, the tight hugs at the door,
The quiet song between the chaos, the small things worth fighting for.
These are the days we′ll wish we could get back,
We′re chasing sunsets, packing snacks in the back,
We′re living the dream, we don′t yet see,
This crazy life, yeah, this crazy life is the good life,
Every scramble, every cheer, every tire that rolls in the night,
Every campsite laugh at midnight, high five under the light,
We′re living the dream, we don′t yet see,
This crazy life, yeah, this crazy life is the good life,
Yeah, this crazy life.
So here′s to the chaos, the chalk on the dash, the mud on the tire,
To Nikki, Hunter, Ava, the coffee, the campfire, the choir,
I′ll say it loud as the road unwinds and we drive,
This crazy life, our good life.
And I′m glad.
