HENRY
It was a February day
When your mom came by before going away
A U-Haul truck in the driveway
The day it was suddenly real

I told you not to come outside
But you saw that truck
And you smiled so wide
A real live truck in your driveway
We let you sit behind the wheel

Good-bye, good-bye
Now it's just me and my little girl
And the house felt so big, and I felt so small
The house felt so big, and I felt so small

That night I tucked you into bed
I will never forget how you sat up and said
"Is there another truck coming to our driveway
A truck that will take daddy away"

And the house felt so big, and I felt so small
The house felt so big, and I
And I knew there would be moments that I'd miss
And I knew
There would be space I couldn't fill
And I knew
I'd come up short a million different ways
And I did
And I do
And I will

But like that February day
I will take your hand, squeeze it tightly and say
There's not another truck in the driveway
Your dad isn't going anywhere
Your dad will stay right here
Your dad isn't going anywhere
Your dad will stay right here
No matter what
I'll be here

When it feels so big
'til it all feels so small
When it feels so big
'til it all feels so small
'Til it all feels so small
