Bring on the tears. With the 2025 CMA Awards just a few hours from staring, nominee Luke Combs is teasing new music. He’s up for Entertainer of the Year, Male Vocalist of the Year and Single of the Year for “Ain’t No Love In Oklahoma,” and he’ll also be performing. But this unreleased new song is what I’m going to be focused on going forward… I need the studio cut, like, yesterday. I imagine the song he just shared on Instagram called “Giving Her Away,” which is an absolute tear jerker of a song told from the perspective of a groom about to marry the love of his life. The song is written like a letter or conversation to her father, as the groom explains he knows that his future wife’s father is her first love, and they have a special bond. Combs confirmed not long ago that a new album is coming next year, and he previously told Katie that he had cut “over 30 songs” for the record, and if the rest of them are anything like this, I think we’re in for something very special. The first verse opens like so: “You’ll always be her first love And mine’s walking down the aisle That song’s about to play We’re going to say ‘I Do’ And for the rest of my days I’ll do my best to fill your shoes Only she could’ve got us both in suits Only she could’ve got us out our boots” He goes onto acknowledge that everyone’s life is about to change after the wedding, singing poignantly that he “brought a ring and I’m giving her my name,” while her dad is “giving her away.” Instant tears: “Fighting back every tear that we both knew We were gonna cry today Neither one of us knows what to do Standing up in front of a crowded room On a Spring time Saturday afternoon With both our lives about to change Man, you brought your baby I brought a ring and I’m giving her my name And you’re giving her away” He knows how to pull on the heart strings, there’s never been a doubt about that… Of course, there are plenty of songs in country music from the perspective of a father giving away his daughter, and many more about a man who is marrying the love of his life, but I’ve never heard one from this perspective from a man to his future father-in-law about their shared love for a woman in their life, and I think it’s absolutely beautiful and something so many people will relate to. If you’re a girl dad, or a girl about to get married, or just a daddy’s girl in general, please grab a few tissues before you listen to this… seriously.
