You were the steady ground beneath my feet
The quiet strength when life would miss a beat
You’d always crack a joke to light my face
And chase the heavy shadows from this place
Oh Mike, you were the rock we leaned upon
It’s hard to find my footing now you're gone
ChorusYou never cared about the things that money buys
The only wealth you needed was right before your eyes
Just making sure we had each other through the miles
And my whole world lit up whenever you would smile
I love you and I miss you every day
I’d give it all to hear the words you used to say
Verse 2You kept us anchored when the wind would blow
You had a way of making comfort grow
You didn't need the shiny or the new
You only needed us, and we had you
Your laughter was the heartbeat of our home
And with you here, we never walked alone
ChorusYou never cared about the things that money buys
The only wealth you needed was right before your eyes
Just making sure we had each other through the miles
And my whole world lit up whenever you would smile
I love you and I miss you every day
I’d give it all to hear the words you used to say
BridgeIf I could get just one more minute of your time
If I could reach you on some hidden, distant line
I’d trade a lifetime for a moment in the light
Just to hear your voice and know that you're alright
Final Chorus'Cause you never cared about the things that money buys
The only wealth you needed was right before your eyes
Just making sure we had each other through the miles
And my whole world lit up whenever you would smile
I love you and I miss you every day
I’d give it all to hear the words you used to say
