We Threw It All Away

Baby come take look at this dusty yearbook
Do you remember those two kids?
It's you and me most likely to succeed
Had it all planned out, yes we did

You were off to college gonna practice law
And I was gonna play football

But we threw it all away that's what the whole town had to say
Momma cried, daddy went for a drive and the whole world changed
Not a clue what to do so I just kept on loving you
On the day that we threw it all away

The fall came and went and so did are friends
Of doing all the things we thought we would
It was tough I know but we never let go
Kept holdin' onto prayers, we thought we could

And then that morning in December, baby
Don' you remember?

When we threw it all away that's what the whole town had to say
With your baby blue eyes our baby boy cried and the whole world changed
Not a clue what to do so I just kept on loving you
On the day that we threw it all away

Ain't it funny how life works out sometimes just like we planned?
You make all the rules in this house
And I'm quarterbacking for our little man

You were off to college gonna practice law
And I was gonna play football

But we threw it all away that's what the whole town had to say
Momma cried, daddy went for a drive and the whole world changed
Not a clue what to do so I just kept on loving you
On the day that we threw it all, God bless the day we threw it all away
Yeah, we threw it all away
