You didn't have to be the one to care
But every time I look, you're standing there
Debbie, you brought a gentle kind of light
And made the heavy days feel easy and right
We don't need a complicated plan
Just sitting here with you, I understand
ChorusWhen we're just hanging out, letting the hours fade
In the quiet little world that we have made
You're my step-mom, but you're so much more
The kind of heart I'm always thankful for
I just want to say it loud and true
Debbie, I've got a whole lot of love for you
Verse 2It’s the simple moments that I hold dear
Just the easy feeling when you are near
No rushing around, no place to go
Just talking while the afternoon gets slow
You're a steady presence I can trust
I love the bond that grew between us
ChorusWhen we're just hanging out, letting the hours fade
In the quiet little world that we have made
You're my step-mom, but you're so much more
The kind of heart I'm always thankful for
I just want to say it loud and true
Debbie, I've got a whole lot of love for you
BridgeThey say that blood is what makes a tie
But that’s a rule that just doesn't apply
You stepped right in and you chose to stay
And I wouldn't have it any other way
Final ChorusNow we're just hanging out, letting the hours fade
In the quiet little world that we have made
You're my step-mom, but you're so much more
The kind of heart I'm always thankful for
I just want to say it loud and true
Debbie, I've got a whole lot of love for you
Yeah, I've got a whole lot of love for you
