What matters most

there's a little girl with pigtails sittin on daddy"s tackle box
she is a waitin to go fishin with her daddy cause he promised
But a long day at the shop has her daddy kinda sore
He pulls in the drive and see's her thinkin ah man we gotta go
Thats when you know...thats when you know...what matters most
Thats when you know ...thats when you know,..what matters most

So we load the van up with our stuff, headin where the blugill bite
She's the first one at the waters edge yellin dad it's fishin time
It aint before she's rellin in sayin dad these blugill fight
I'm the designated deck hand watchin wide eyes smiling brite
Thats when you know....thats when you know...what matters most
Thats when you know,..thats when you know...what matters most

But the years go by so fast, that we must hold onto each day...
And the tears I told her wouldnt last, came back in other ways..
so I hold onto each memory, like they happened yesterday.............................

As the years go by the pigtails mommy once put in her hair..
Been replaced by all these telephones that seem glued to each her ear's
Now the day has come she's waited for as I walk her down the aisle
Moomy's smiling thru the tears that flow like a river runnin wild...
Thats when you know....thats when you know...what matters most....
Thats when you know...thats when you know....what matters most

But the years go by so fast , that we must hold onto each day
And the tears I told her wouldn't last, came back in other ways
I unpackage all those memories as my last breath fades away..........................

And now I know that it was love that matterd most....
yes now I know ...oh yeah I know....love matters most...............
