You've got a way of making me smile
When the road gets heavy and the miles get long
You sit beside me and you stay a while
You're the steady rhythm in my favorite song
With a forgiving heart and a gentle hand
You understand me like nobody can
ChorusOh, Mike, I wouldn't have made it this far
Without you holding the keys to my heart
Through the shadows and rain, the wrong and the right
I need you right here by my side
Yeah, I wouldn't be who I am today
If you hadn't loved me this way
Verse 2I still remember that Kid Rock show
The music was loud but the world faded out
Just laughing together in the neon glow
That’s the kind of magic I’m talking about
You never judge me when I stumble and fall
You just pick me up and you love through it all
ChorusOh, Mike, I wouldn't have made it this far
Without you holding the keys to my heart
Through the shadows and rain, the wrong and the right
I need you right here by my side
Yeah, I wouldn't be who I am today
If you hadn't loved me this way
BridgeYou're the first one to care, the last one to leave
You give me a reason to finally believe
In something so steady, in something so true
I owe so much of my story to you
Final ChorusOh, Mike, I wouldn't have made it this far
Without you holding the keys to my heart
Through the shadows and rain, the wrong and the right
I need you right here by my side
Yeah, I wouldn't be who I am today
I love you more than words can say
Thank God you're right here by my side
