Our Little Family

Letra

[Verse 1] He used to hide beneath a wool cap When the morning caught him unprepared Then she laughed and called him handsome Like she saw a crown up there She was small beside the doorway But she carried a fearless heart He had nothing but a borrowed car She said, “That’s enough to start” [Pre-Chorus] They counted coins beside the sink And made big plans on little sleep [Chorus] Look at us now, my little princess Look at the life we made somehow One bright daughter in the kitchen And another little heartbeat now Every hard road led us home Every no became a yes We didn’t find a perfect story We built our beautiful success [Verse 2] There were winters with the heater Making noises like it might give in She would dance around the laundry He would shave his head and grin They learned to mend what broke between them Learned that pride can bend and heal Then their daughter found her laughter And made the whole small house feel real [Pre-Chorus] A lunchbox waiting by the door A tiny shoe beside the floor [Chorus] Look at us now, my little princess Look at the life we made somehow One bright daughter in the kitchen And another little heartbeat now Every hard road led us home Every no became a yes We didn’t find a perfect story We built our beautiful success [Bridge] If tomorrow brings a mountain We will meet it hand in hand With her sleepy head against us And our daughter’s chalk on the land I used to measure life in winnings Now I measure it in names In the people at our table In the love that stayed the same [Final Chorus] Look at us now, my little princess See the sunrise through the blinds One sweet girl is growing fearless One new dream is on the line Every hard road led us home Every tear became a blessing We didn’t find a perfect story We became the success story [Outro] No crown, no castle, nothing fancy Just your hand inside of mine Our little family keeps on growing And the best is still arriving
