We Threw It All Away

Baby come and 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
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
Off 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
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
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
