| Here we are standing at the end of the road There are so many things I've left untold I watched you grow into fine young men thru the years I did all the things I could in happiness and tears You were so enjoyable, a child of great joy So curious, happy, my precious little boy From trains, planes, boats to all those girls You sure had heads spinning around in swirls I didn't have time to always say good night God bless, hear prayers and hold you tight I wasn't there when you fell and skinned your knee You were always in my heart and a part of me Often we danced to music of a different beat Kidding around and scoffing our feet The messes we made we didn't care Cause we had our love all around us there Now you're full grown, a man I see To think I once carried you inside of me Sorry I never had time to tell you more I just couldn't tell you what the future had in store I never seemed to have the time to listen with anything but my heart Before you knew it you were gone, and we were apart The years have drifted, and the seasons are passing one by one You have a lifetime ahead of you, you've only just begun |
