Well, your name is a combination
Of several stories to be told
Like a man who found religion in a buried book of gold
And the son of a grandfather, fought off in a foreign war
Passed his name off to his son just like his father had before
When I first met your mother
Took her out to hear him sing
She was so impressed that she said yes when I gave her the ring
And the day that I first saw you I knew everything had changed
Somehow we were now a family life would never be the same
And it's alright now
Take my love an you lay me down
In a home beneath the canyons where the cottonwoods are found
It will be alright
Say a prayer and you close your eyes
I will be there in the morning waiting for the son to rise
I'm not getting any younger
For the first time in my life
I look at you and wonder, oh lord did I do this right
In a world of bad decisions can I teach you right from wrong
Can I show you how to stand and how to rise up when you fall
CH
Well your name is a combination
Of several stories come and gone
Just be still and know I love you and in you they can live on
