[Verse 1] Dad I still remember Your hands on that old bike seat Running down the driveway You said “Go on Trust your feet” Mom You fixed my laces Kissed the scrape on my right knee You both stood there waving First time you let go of me [Pre-Chorus] Every step I took You were somewhere close behind Teaching me to fall Teaching me to rise [Chorus] So before I say “I do” I had to write to you I am who I am ’Cause you loved me like you do I’m walking toward my future But I’m walking with your truth So before I say “I do” I just wanna say Thank you [Verse 2] Dad You at the doorway Waiting up when I came late Trying to look angry But your smile always gave way Mom You in the kitchen Humming while the table set You knew all my secrets Loved me more than my regrets [Pre-Chorus] You both held the pieces Every time my heart got bruised Showed me what it means To stay and to choose [Chorus] So before I say “I do” I had to write to you I am who I am ’Cause you loved me like you do I’m walking toward my future But I’m walking with your truth So before I say “I do” I just wanna say Thank you [Bridge] Dad I see you in my steady hands Mom I hear you in the vows I plan When I promise I will stay Through the hard and through the great It’s your love I’m echoing today (oh) [Chorus] So before I say “I do” I had to write to you I am who I am ’Cause you loved me like you do I’m standing at this doorway But my first home is still you two So before I say “I do” Know a part of me Stays with you

Contemporary piano-led ballad with male vocals, warm strings that bloom into the chorus, subtle acoustic guitar for intimacy. Verses stay close and conversational, almost whispered; chorus lifts with fuller strings, soft toms, and stacked harmonies on the hook. Bridge swells emotionally, then drops back to voice-and-piano for the final line., ballad, contemporary, male vocals
