I was lost in the shadows, just drifting along
Before I heard the sweet sound of your very first song
They laid you right there in my arms, so little and new
But Cody, the truth is, I was rescued by you
The day you were born, you gave me a reason
To pull myself up and face every season.
ChorusYou're the best part of my life, the beat of my heart
I've loved you so fiercely right from the start
Now I watch how you care for your family with pride
A hardworking daddy who provides and who guides
You're an amazing son, through the joy and the strife
Cody, you're the best part of my life.
Verse 2I see the long hours you put in each day
Making sure that your loved ones are always okay
You carry the weight with a smile on your face
And fill up your home with such patience and grace
I couldn't be prouder of the man that I see
The boy who once gave a new beginning to me.
ChorusYou're the best part of my life, the beat of my heart
I've loved you so fiercely right from the start
Now I watch how you care for your family with pride
A hardworking daddy who provides and who guides
You're an amazing son, through the joy and the strife
Cody, you're the best part of my life.
BridgeI look at you now, standing steady and strong
And I know right exactly where you belong
You gave me a purpose when I had no clue
I owe all my brightest tomorrows to you.
Final Chorus'Cause you're the best part of my life, the beat of my heart
I've loved you so fiercely right from the start
Now I watch how you care for your family with pride
A hardworking daddy who provides and who guides
You're an amazing son, through the joy and the strife
Cody, you're the best part of my life.
