Worth It

© 2015 Jeff Jackson


You came home from the worst day

Collapsed into my arms

Hadn't seen you cry in such a while

I put on music and did my silly dance

Sacrificed my shame and pride

But it was worth it to see you smile


I saw you looking at that blue dress

With little straps and rick rack lines

But our bills were stacked up in a pile

I gave up buying coffee and bought that dress for you

You'd be mad at me for spending so much

But it was worth it to see you smile


It’s not love unless there is surrender

I’d gladly give it all to be with you.


Now we're getting on up there

We've had ourselves a good run

But the angels are walking up the aisle

You're here with me as I breathe my final sigh

Smile between those tears & remember

It was worth it to see you smile

It was worth it to see you smile
