  • Daddies meet mamas
    On a Saturday night
    Buy 'em a Corona
    In the blink of an eye
    There's a ring on her finger
    They're throwin' parking lot rice
    Then you're standin' in the kitchen
    And there's two pink lines
    Nine months later, you're breathin'
    And you're the reason
    They're here on Earth

    It's like we open our eyes
    For the very first time
    When we find out why
    We're here on Earth
    Here on Earth

    The drunks get sober
    And poets get drunk
    Wonder years wander
    Guitars get strummed
    We all need dreams worth dreaming
    Somethin' to believe in
    Here on Earth (here on Earth)
    (Here on Earth, here on Earth)

    It's like we open our eyes
    For the very first time
    When we find out why
    We're here on Earth

    I was a book hull of questions
    Heart full of doubt
    I send 'em up to heaven
    Answers never came down
    'Til they did one night
    Maybe loving you's why
    I'm here on Earth
    Here on Earth

    It's like we open our eyes
    For the very first time
    When we find out why
    We're here on Earth
    Here on Earth
    It's like you opened my eyes
    For the very first time
    Yeah, lovin' you's why
    I'm here on Earth
    Here on Earth
    Ayy, ayy, ayy

    Here on Earth
    Yeah, lovin' you's why
    I'm here on Earth
    Here on Earth
