Lyrics
Verse 1
Reaching for a pass, running for a goal
Speaking up in class, going for the gold
Kind of guy you can't keep down
Kind a guy you like to be around
You've opened up our eyes just being in our lives
We'll celebrate tonight with you
Chorus:
Where you going, where you going now?
Your eyes are getting brighter
Where you going, where you going now?
Your smile is getting wider
Where you going where you going now?
You're stepping out, walking proud....now.
Verse 2
Down-home boy on an uphill road
Never giving up never aiming too low
Going where they said you'd never go
Knowing things they said you'd never know
Now that you've arrived you're taking it in stride
We're busting out in pride for you.
Chorus
Bridge
Who knew....we'd be better 'cause of you?
Who knew...you gotta wonder who needs who.
Verse 3
Cruising down the street, grooving to the beat
Working every weekend at the HEB
It's cool everything that you do
But that's stopping short of the truth
We've known you from the start,
We seen what's in your heart
That's the best part of you.
Chorus
