|
Let me start by saying that I love you |
|
You know that I'd do anything for you |
|
Ever since day one you know you were a wild one |
|
And keeping you in line was hard to do |
|
I did wrong I know I've been hard on you |
|
And in return you put me to the test |
|
And our blood is so much thicker than that water |
|
All I ever want for you is the best |
|
And it's weighing on my mind |
|
I'm praying all the time |
|
Lord just help me see this through |
|
There are people in this world |
|
Some are broken some are black and blue |
|
And I know that you'll take care of me |
|
And I'll take care of you |
|
You're gonna want to go to California |
|
To search for fame or stake your claim to gold |
|
And that thing you'll talk about what you'll call freedom |
|
Back in my day well we called that rock-n-roll |
|
And it's weighing on my mind |
|
I'm praying all the time |
|
Lord just help her see this through |
|
There are people in this world |
|
Some are broken some are black and blue |
|
And I know that you'll take care of me |
|
And I'll take care of you |
|
And I watch the sun rise in the sky |
|
Another day and another year |
|
And love and dreams and hopes and fears |
|
And I don't ask why it's the ties that bind |
|
Life is good but things are never easy |
|
We laugh and cry and live and die alone |
|
You hold on to the one that really matters |
|
You let go of the light when that bird has flown |
|
And it's weighing on my mind |
|
I'm praying all the time |
|
Lord just help her see this through |
|
There are people in this world |
|
Some are broken some are black and blue, it's true |
|
And I know that you'll be strong |
|
You'll have faith and you'll know love |
|
You'll have one of your own brand new |
|
And I know that you'll take care of her |
|
And I'll take care of you |
