Dejour

I still remember the day my world was made new

My very first child, my heart started beating for you

Dejour, you grew up with hands always open so wide

Giving your spirit, with nothing to hide

You pour out your soul like a comforting rain

Always stepping right in to help carry the pain

Oh, Dejour, you're the true definition

Of holding your ground for a beautiful vision

You show me the meaning, sent from above

Of what it means to be loyal to what you love

Full of that strength, full of that grace

Bringing your warmth to the coldest place

I watch how you move when the mountain is steep

Making the hard choices, promises you keep

You do what it takes, no matter the cost

Guiding the way when the compass is lost

You shoulder the burden and never complain

Walking with purpose right through the rain

Oh, Dejour, you're the true definition

Of holding your ground for a beautiful vision

You show me the meaning, sent from above

Of what it means to be loyal to what you love

Full of that strength, full of that grace

Bringing your warmth to the coldest place

When somebody stumbles, you're the first one to speak

Pouring out courage whenever they're weak

My beautiful daughter, I’m so proud to see

The fierce, giving woman you grew up to be

Dejour, you're the true definition

Of holding your ground for a beautiful vision

You show me the meaning, sent from above

Of what it means to be loyal to what you love

Yeah, you do what it takes when push comes to shove

My firstborn, forever loyal to the love
