I was working through my favorite songs last night and I think the one I like the best is from Sawyer Brown named All These Years it's written by Mac McAnally who also wrote Back Where I Come From which has a line like "We know who makes the Sun shine through and we know who makes the moonshine too". I think After All These Years has some great lines but it's not a very happy song.
All These Years
She likes adventure with security
And more than one man can provide
She planned adventure feeling sure that he
Would not be home 'till after five
He turned on the lights and turned them off again
And said the one thing he could say
All these years
Where have I been
Well I've been down the rode to work and home again
And I'm still here
Until I'm gone
Don't you rub it in too hard that I've been wrong
All these years
She said, "You're not the man you used to be"
He said, "Neither is this guy"
She said, "There's some things you refuse to see
But I guess sometimes so do I"
She made no excuse why she was lying there
She said the one thing she could say
All these years
What have I done
I made your supper and your daughter and your son
Still I'm here
And still confused
But I can finally see how much I stand to lose
All these years
I'm still here
And so confused
But I can finally see how much I stand to lose
All these years
