My Daughter Teaches Her Husband to Swim

She shows him how to kick his feet How to breathe and how to tread He says he always sinks just like a stone... Maybe, but love is lighter than bone Yeah, true love is lighter than bone. The moon she's watching from up above Until the wind and the clouds start to push and shove, Start to push and shove Every dark night is brighter with love Even the darkest night is brighter with love This man, he has this daughter She fell in love and he gained a son Together, they navigate these unknown waters I call this man the lucky one The lesson ends with a trip to the deep end They hold hands like the closest of best friends Part steadying, and part romance Just like a very first dance... Pardon me, may I have this dance? This man, he has this daughter She fell in love and he gained a son Together, they navigate these unknown waters I call this man the lucky one. Sometimes, you need the stone, To hold you true, keep you steady, To mark what's "home" To mark what's "home" Sometimes the river, she'll silt it in... Keep that stone from rollin’ again. My wife slips in next to me Whispers ever so quietly... Warm, like a day full of song, Familiar as our love is long, Familiar 'cause love is strong... These two, they have this daughter Who fell in love and they gained a son Time runs by like rapid water Carrying along all us lucky ones. True love is lighter than bone, And love lights the night like a rising sun.
