Slow, sweet walk

Walk With You
Edwin McCain & Maia Sharp

I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say “I do”
He will discover just how blessed a life can be
I know ‘cause all those years ago someone handed you to me
Every step that we take brings back the memories
Winter snows and horse shows and dancing on the beach
I can’t help thinking that I’m the lucky one
You’re still my baby daughter and now I’ve gained a son
I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say “I do”
He will discover just how blessed a life can be
I know ‘cause all those years ago your mom handed you to me
Don’t miss a chance to put each other first
Now that you’ve vowed for better or for worse
Don’t let the beauty of this life pass you by
In the times of trouble you’ll stand side by side
I’ll take this slow sweet walk with you
You’ll let go of my hand to say ” I do”
I picture a slow sweet walk yet to be
When you’ll take my hand and say “Daddy come see”
Then you’ll know what it felt like
You won’t believe what it feels like
Then you’ll know what it felt like when she handed you to me.
She handed you to me

I heard this song on the radio the other night while driving home from a late soccer game.  I'm sure the rest of the world has heard it already (we don't always have the most up-to-date music on the airwaves here) but maybe there's someone else out there who hasn't.  Or someone who would like to add it to your music collection for free.

I googled the song when I got home and found out that Edwin McCain offers it as a free download on his website.  I love free stuff, and it really is a sweet song, even if there is a bit of country twang.  Check it out here!
