We're gonna dedicate this next song to my father, Joe Mineo, the legend Look August 23rd, how could I forget it? Getting ready in my suite, it's the morning of my wedding Invited all my legends, man it's set to be epic And then I got that message, I was dreading My momma said it, "Andy I don't think your father gon' come" I just laugh, said "oh well," and tried to be numb I learned to stop getting hopes up As a kid, growing up, that made the let down easy, when he didn't show up But deep down I had this flicker of hope This one time he pull it together, make a effort but nope I'm standing at the altar, he nowhere in sight How I'm thinking about him now instead of my wife Best man Ray to my right said "you'll be alright At least you know you're gonna be smashing tonight" Then the doors open in the back, wearing all white This the first day of the rest of our life Her father by her side while she came down the aisle She's was looking all wow, then we exchanged vows Long winded self, should have passed me a towel We both said "I do," we team Mineo now So, everyone, everyone smile for the family photo But everyone, everyone ain't really in the picture So, everyone, everyone smile for the family photo Letras de cancionesBut everyone, everyone ain't really in the picture Now the ceremonies done, I know it sound dumb But I thought he might come because the night was still young I could've filled his space, it's like a hunnid a plate I kept it just in case he praying he show up late Then I wait, and I wait I looked Cris in the face and told her nothing's gonna ruin our day I hate the fact I still love you I wish that I could turn you off, take the cord to my heart and just unplug you Damn man, you my dad, what I did to ya? To make you not love, mean what I should to ya Look I don't understand, I'd jump off a bridge, I'd take a bullet to the rib before I'd hurt my kid You know that Mark told me something I won't never forget Sounded just like you, that's why I know it's legit You know you go to Andy's football games but not lacrosse Why, you told him you don't like that sport Well do you like me, it's sad I got to ask You either cry or you try to learn to laugh Look I figured I'd be past all this hurt by now But after all this time it's only worse right now 'Cause when you bury emotions, you bury them alive They only come back stronger, somewhere later in your life And on the honeymoon, I got your text But I ain't reply Said "congratulations" like what a guy I ain't ask you to be perfect, man, that's only God I just wished you would have tried So, everyone, everyone smile for the family photo But everyone, everyone ain't really in the picture So, everyone, everyone smile for the family photo But everyone, everyone ain't really in the picture God grant me the serenity To accept the things I cannot change Courage to change the things I can And wisdom to know the difference Living one day at a time Enjoying one moment at a time Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace Taking, as Jesus did, this sinful world As it is, not as I would have it Trusting that He will make all things right If I surrender to His Will That I may be reasonably happy in this life And supremely happy with You Forever in the next Amen, amen, amen From Letras Mania
