It won't make the papers
Like some reunions do
There won't be many people
Just me and him and you
I made a childhood promise
You laughed and dried your tears
But I swore that I'd bring Daddy home
And tomorrow, he'll be here
I tracked him down in Denver
Where he'd lived all alone
He was just another drifter
With a number on his stone
In his things, I'd found a picture
Where his hands had worn it thin
A smiling bride was by his side
And now he'll be this way again
We'll have that family reunion
The one you dreamed of until the day you died
But this time, Mama, he's gonna stay
Forever by your side
ย
I'd never really knew him
I was no more than a kid
He must have been worth something
If someone loved him like you did
It was hard without a man there
You did his part too
I watched your dreams fade through the years
But Mama, this one is coming true
We'll have that family reunion
The one you dreamed of until the day you died
But this time, Mama, he's gonna stay
Forever by your side
This time, Mama, he's gonna stay
Forever by your side
