There's a chair in the corner where I'll rock you to sleep.
Under stars I painted on the ceiling I'll hold you while you dream.
Will you have your mother's patience, her smile or her eyes?
I guess we'll see, but I know you'll be a beautiful surprise.
There's a song in my heart I will sing to you
that my father's father sang to him when he was in my shoes:
"when the sun is on your shoulder, may it give you strength to shine
so that as you grow to be a man, you never lose the boy inside."
Take your time, you never take enough when time is on your side.
Know that I'll be here forever if you need me to.
Oh your life is full of possibility like a sky wide open and blue.
I know you're on your way.
I can't wait to meet you.
Brand new curtains for the windows and a blanket in baby blue
that your grandmother started working on the second that she heard you'd be here soon.
We'll all be watching over you as you take your first breath.
We count the minutes and the hours until the day we're blessed.
Take your time, you never take enough when time is on your side.
Know that I'll be here forever if you need me to.
Oh your life is full of possibility like a sky wide open and blue.
I know you're on your way.
I can't wait to meet you.
