Toby My Darling

Lyrics

[Verse 1] Toby walks in soft, Like rain on old tin. A crooked little smile, And a brave, tender grin. He picks up the room, Just by being there. Warm hands, steady eyes, A heart laid bare. [Pre-Chorus] And when the world gets loud, He stands like a flame. So gentle, so true, I call out his name. [Chorus] Toby, my darling, Stay just like you are. Toby, my darling, You light up the dark. Hold on, hold on, You’re farther than you see. Toby, my darling, You’re everything to me. (Toby, my darling) [Verse 2] He lifts up the small things, That nobody sees. The bent-up dreams, And the split-knee memories. He turns hurt to hope, With a hand on your back. One kind word from Toby, And the road comes back. [Pre-Chorus] And when the sky goes gray, He doesn’t run away. He plants both feet down, And he finds a way. [Chorus] Toby, my darling, Stay just like you are. Toby, my darling, You light up the dark. Hold on, hold on, You’re farther than you see. Toby, my darling, You’re everything to me. (Toby, my darling) [Bridge] So if you ever doubt The shape of your light, Look at the ones You’ve carried through the night. You’re love in a hard place, You’re grace in a storm, Toby, my darling, You keep us warm. [Final Chorus] Toby, my darling, Stay just like you are. Toby, my darling, You light up the dark. Hold on, hold on, You’re farther than you see. Toby, my darling, You’re everything to me. Toby, my darling, We’re singing it loud. Toby, my darling, You make us proud. Hold on, hold on, You’re stronger than you know. Toby, my darling, We love you so. (Toby, my darling)
