Can't run, can't hide

[Declan Finnigan]

(BINGO LOL)

I'm not the mom
I may have longer hair than you but I'm not
The mom

[Wade Calhoun]

I like your long hair.
Makes you look rugged.

Here's the secret: I don't mind being mom. I've been doing her hair and singing her lullabies anyway.
And yes, maybe I bake a mean cookie.

[Declan Finnigan]

She loves it when you braid her hair
Always comes running to show me

And I've come around to all your country songs

...
i don't think Lily could ask for a better mom or dad than you

[Wade Calhoun]

Other than you, I assume you mean, dad.
Nobody will ever replace you in her heart.
She needs protecting, you're the first she goes to.

We make a good team, you and I.

[Declan Finnigan]

Yeah, I know
Thanks Wade

I suppose a fella couldn't do much better than a partner who
Pats butts and winks
And bakes cookies and knows how to braid a little girl's hair

I've
Grown mighty fond of you
I won't lie

Can't really see us without you

[Wade Calhoun]

This is the nicest thing you've ever said to me.

Guess the kids ain't too wrong about us.

[Declan Finnigan]

I think a lot of nice things about you
Don't get to say em much

Suppose we've become one of those
Self-fulfilling prophesies?

Still wish those damn kids would stop spying on us though
Dunno what they're hoping to see

[Wade Calhoun]

Well... you're normally pretty quiet.
Maybe it's easier when we're not in the same room.

Yeah that's what I get for introducing you as my husband.

Kids are curious. But these ones are way too old to be spying on a couple of grown ass men.

[Declan Finnigan]

Definitely easier when you're not grinnin like a fox at me
Guess it's not so bad being Mr. Calhoun

I should have a talk with their dad about this

[Wade Calhoun]

...yeah that's another bad habit of mine.

Maybe you should. It's starting to get a little creepy.

[Declan Finnigan]

Well now
I wouldn't say it's all bad

(Dec speak: he likes it)

Wouldn't want them to get an eyeful and be permanently scarred





;)

[Wade Calhoun]

Whoa you're just spoilin me today!
A guy could get used to this.

And are you suggesting what I think you are?

[Declan Finnigan]

Just
Speakin the truth
Bout time we stopped tiptoeing around things, huh? Never been my way of doing things.

Yes

[Wade Calhoun]

You really are to the point.

But thank god I'm not the only one thinking it.

[Declan Finnigan]

Well Wade

Neither of us are gettin any younger

Figure if we want to make something of our lives, might as well start by being honest with ourselves
We already have it pretty good here
Lily's settling in at the school, we're doing good at this ranch
Can't have a better boss than Mr. Carter

Maybe it's just time to
Settle down with somebody I've come to care about
Maybe we're home
