a song for the single. great song

i may never have a little boy to wrestle on the floor
Or walk the aisle to give away a daughter i adore
i might never cry the tears that fathers cry on special days
i’m a man who’s never married, i have love to give away.
i might never know the promise or the kisses of a bride
But i will not mourn the absence of the bed i’ve been denied
Is it destiny or choice, i’m not quite sure that i can say
i’m a man who’s never married, i have love to give away.
But there are worlds of joy inside this world of tables just for one
Friends and family help me on this journey that i run
i have found that if my eyes and heart are open everyday
i will never be without a place to give my love away
My family name might perish when they put me in the grave
But i’ve learned it’s not the family name that matters anyway
There’s a stronger Name that covers me on every single day
i’m a man who’s never married, i will give that Name away
So don’t worry that i’m lonely, please believe me i am not
i’m thankful for the meaning of the moments that i’ve got
And i will not spend my life afraid of things that people say
i’m a man who’s never married, i will give my love away
Till i’m seated at the table, i will watch and i will pray
i’m a man who’s never married, i will give my love away.
