Austin Brown - I'll Go First

He said, girl, there's something I gotta say
A gamble, but it's one I've gotta take
It's already been so hard to wait
And I can't hold it in another day

So I'll go first and hold the door
Speak my truth so you don't have to be unsure
It might just be three little words
But if you're scared, I'll go first

Girl, there's something I gotta ask
On one knee with a ring, please, take my hand
So I can be the happiest man
'Cause you're the most precious thing I've ever had

And I'll first down the aisle
Watch your daddy fight his tears and force a smile
Anywhere on earth or a smalltown church
Either way, I'll go first

I'll stand behind you
Every day I'll keep you safe and catch your fall
And I'll walk beside you
Lift you up when you've had enough and times get hard
But when it's all said and done and our final song's near sung

Sun's going down, fading gold
Watching everything they'd hope for still unfold
But her grey head knows his mind
She says, we're not done yet my love but when it's time

Just know, I'll go first to meet our maker
And I pray I get my way and He lets me take her
I can't live this life alone
So when you're ready to go home
Let me know and I'll go first
You already know, I'll go first
