Those I've Loved Lyrics

I remember waiting by the curb with Mr. Murphy

When daddy picked me up from school, his eyes were red

We drove to hospital in a hurry

Where my family gathered round my gradpa's bed

He was my best friend

He taught me how to fish

And I cried listening to my daddy pray

For one of those I've loved along the way

She had a ribbon in her hair the day I met her

That whole next year we couldnt get enough

And after graduation she took off for Denver

And for awhile we both tried to keep in touch

She was my best friend

And it broke my heart

But I don't regret the day that she became

One of those I've loved along the way

And I hope they know

I never woulda made it this far on my own

Where would we all be without those

Fathers and mothers, sisters and brothers

The friends I've made, the long lost lovers

I wouldn't be who I am today

If not for those I've loved along the way

Along the way

Now I'm just a country boy with a guitar

Lookin back down this old road I've been travelin on

It was never about tryin to be some big star

For me it's always been about these songs

You see they're my best friends

They're the life I live

And I hope they put a smile on the face

Of those that I've loved along the way

Cause I wouldn't be the man I am today

If not for those I've loved along the way
