First time I ever saw your face
You were pink from all that crying but life fell into place
You were right on time when you arrived
Eighteen long years later we survived
First time I held you in my arms
I was instantly enamored, held captive by your charms
Nothing has changed in all these years
But now you’re changing lanes and shifting gears
Avery, Avery I adore you lovely girl
There’s nowhere you can go my heart won’t follow you, follow you
Avery Avery I adore you lovely girl
Nighttime or day one whisper away
Just turn and I’ll be right behind
Now I cannot afford to look away
You’re steadily becoming and I’m prouder every day
Of all the ways to bend and kiss the ground
Beholding you is the best one I have found
That time I came to tuck you into bed
You were madder than a hornet and you swore at me instead
Soon we slowed it down and sang our song
All of us were right where we belong
Avery, Avery I adore you lovely girl
There’s nowhere you can go my heart won’t follow, you follow you
Avery Avery I adore you lovely girl
Nighttime or day one whisper away
Just turn and I’ll be right behind
You already in circles run me round
Still I’m watering these deep roots in the ground
Watching as the leaves begin to fall
And by the way please don’t forget to call
