"Bridget"

(Verse 1) Met her on a night I won’t forget Smoke in the air, no regrets Laughed like fools, drank like thieves She danced like the world was hers to leave Hung out a few times, not near enough Every time she smiled, it lit me up Carefree days in a reckless haze Wish I could’ve frozen those golden waves (Chorus) Bridget, why can’t you see? You were always more than a memory Through the years, through the pain You're the sun I crave in the pouring rain Bridget, you’re the one I never let go Even when I had to walk that road alone If you gave me a chance, I’d give you the world For the crazy, beautiful, kind-hearted girl (Verse 2) Your mama’s got a heart made of gold Took me in when I had no home Fed me hope, gave me a name Loved me like her own, without shame Your brother’s still my closest friend Through thick and thin, beginning to end But you — you’ve always been the spark A light that flickers still in my heart (Chorus) Bridget, why can’t you see? You were always more than a memory Through the years, through the pain You're the sun I crave in the pouring rain Bridget, you’re the one I never let go Even when I had to walk that road alone If you gave me a chance, I’d give you the world For the crazy, beautiful, kind-hearted girl (Bridge) I’ve had love, I’ve watched it fall But you were the quiet love behind it all I see you now with your boys so proud You’re a damn good mom — you stand out in the crowd (Verse 3) Sometimes I wonder if you ever knew The way I saw the world when it was me and you Just give me one try, one open door I swear you won’t be searching anymore (Final Chorus) Bridget, why can’t you see? We might just be what we’re meant to be Through the hurt, through the years I’d still trade it all to have you here Bridget, you’re the one I never let go Even through the silence and the shadow If you gave me a chance, I’d give you the world For the crazy, beautiful, kind-hearted girl Yeah, Bridget... you’re still my whole world
