Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Got a baby girl sleeping in my bedroom
And her mama laughing in my arms
There's the sound of rain on the rooftop
And the game's about to start
[Verse 2]
I don't really know how I got here
But I'm sure glad that I did
And it's crazy to think that one little thing
Could've changed all of it
[Verse 3]
Maybe it didn't turn out like I planned
Maybe that's why I'm such, such a lucky man
[Verse 4]
For every stoplight I didn't make
Every chance I did or I didn't take
All the nights I went too far
All the girls that broke my heart
All the doors that I had to close
All the things I knew but I didn't know
Thank God for all I missed
'Cause it led me here to this
[Verse 5]
Like the girl that I loved in high school
Who said she could do better
Or that college I wanted to go to
Till I got that letter
[Verse 6]
All the fights and the tears and the heartache
I thought I'd never get through
And the moment I almost gave up
All lead me here to you
[Verse 7]
I didn't understand it way back when
But sitting here right now it all makes perfect sense
[Verse 8]
Every stoplight I didn't make
Every chance I did or I didn't take
All the nights I went too far
All the girls that broke my heart
All the doors that I had to close
All the things I knew but I didn't know
Thank God for all I missed
'Cause it led me here to this
[Verse 9]
How I cried when my mama passed away
But now I've got an angel looking out for me today
So nothing's a mistake
[Verse 10]
Every stoplight I didn't make
Every chance I did or I didn't take
All the nights I went too far
All the girls that broke my heart
All the doors that I had to close
Everything I knew but I didn't know
Thank God for all I missed
'Cause it led me here to this
[Verse 11]
It led me here to this
