|
I do most everything wrong |
|
Even on the day you were born |
|
My husband's been lyin' and cheatin' |
|
I turned my cheek and reason |
|
I change my tune every day |
|
There is one thing I want you to be |
|
That is smarter than me |
|
If things, they don't seem right, |
|
Open your wings and take flight |
|
Don't stick around the watch the pieces fall |
|
I don't want you to feel alone |
|
But you probably will, when you are older |
|
I will try to stay alive |
|
To see as much through your eyes |
|
But one day you know I will go |
|
Don't listen too much to what I say |
|
Making sense has never been my way |
|
I can teach you 1,2,3 |
|
I can dance with you on repeat |
|
I can hold your hand forever |
|
Na, na, na... |
|
I can do so much, |
|
But you can do so much more |
|
I am only a stepping stone |
|
For you to get where you must go |
|
And there is nothing I would rather be, |
|
So put your weight on me |
|
Na, na, na... |
|
I am your protector |
|
I am not your pretender |
|
I will try |
|
I will not lie |
|
I will not cry too much in front of you |
|
I have been really, really sad, |
|
Except for having you with your dad. |
