“At The End of the Day”

My father said son, you’ll be a man someday
Find a girl, settle down, watch the youngsters play
Mom and Dad held hands on the porch beneath the stars embrace
I hoped someday that I might find, a love to match that moonlit grace

Now the years roll by and my life’s not what it seems
I’ve known a lot of girls but I’ve yet to find my queen
Who will guide me, who’ll show me the way?
Who will I kiss goodnight at the end of the day?
At the end of the day

It seems a long time ago since my daddy sat me down
Taught me about life, to keep what love I found
I’ve spent my days looking for a girl whose one of a kind
But I’m not that lucky and my heart got left behind

Then you walked into my life, like a star streaking through the night
Your simple smile, proved my daddy was right
It’s you I’ll run to, you’ll show me the way
It’s you I’ll kiss goodnight at the end of the day
At the end of the day

Now we sit on out porch, holding hands in the evening bliss
My childhood dreams can’t compare to this
It’s you who’ll save me, you’ll show me the way
It’s you who’ll kiss me goodnight at the end of the day
At the end of the day
