What Family Means to Me

What does family mean
Does it only need
A Mom and Dad and a couple kids?
Sure that's where it all begins, but
Wedding bands and mortgage loans
Aren't what make a house a home
It's so much more than just the basic things
It's all that happens in between

Like road trip driving til the break of dawn
Off-key singing to our favorite song
Jumping and yelling, cheering our favorite team
Grandma's cooking and late night games
Good advice and making mistakes
Then forgiving, forgetting, and loving through everything
That's what family means to me

No matter what we do
We're gonna make it through
Because it isn't just a box to check
Or a status that we're trying to get
In the stands or back at home
Family's there to cheer us on
And it can last forever and a day
Along with all the memories made

Like front room movie nights and hand-me-downs
Dreaming bigger than our back accounts
But knowing we'll always have enough to make ends meet
Doctor visits after double dare
Group hug laughing after family prayer
And knowing we'd never ever wanna change a thing
That's what family means to me

It's working hard and giving up
Something's we want
For something more
That's so much more

Road trip driving til the break of dawn
Off-key singing to our favorite songs
Jumping, and yelling, cheering our favorite team
Grandma's cooking and late night games
Good advice and making mistakes
Then forgiving, forgetting, and loving through everything
That's what family means to me

That's what family means to me
