Steve

Looking back on the days when we were just kids

Learning the world from the things that we did

Steve, you always knew how to lighten the room

Got a joke and a smile to chase away gloom

You had all the smarts, always figuring out

What this crazy life was really about

We were sharing our time, we were sharing a dream

Always playing our part on the very same team

Oh, I count my blessings for a brother like you

Smart and so loving in everything you do

From the boys that we were to the men we became

The respect that I have for you stays the same

Yeah, Steve, you're a light, you're a hell of a man

Side by side since the journey began

Now I look at the beautiful life that you made

A loving husband who is never afraid

To put in the work and to hold it down right

Making her laugh in the middle of the night

You still got the brains, you still got the wit

When we get to talking, we just never quit

I see the same kid when I look in your eyes

But you grew up strong and you grew up wise

Oh, I count my blessings for a brother like you

Smart and so loving in everything you do

From the boys that we were to the men we became

The respect that I have for you stays the same

Yeah, Steve, you're a light, you're a hell of a man

Side by side since the journey began

Time keeps spinning, the seasons change

But the bond that we have, it won't rearrange

You stepped up to the plate, built a beautiful life

A rock for your family, a rock for your wife

I'm proud to stand by you, proud to say

That's my brother Steve, leading the way

Oh, I count my blessings for a brother like you

Smart and so loving in everything you do

From the boys that we were to the men we became

The respect that I have for you stays the same

Yeah, Steve, you're a light, you're a hell of a man

Side by side since the journey began
