Within a Second

Today I feel scared for her
Helplessness is taken over
Holding back my flooded eyes
I smile at her; I hold her tight
I smile again; and then I cried
A million doubt in my mind
Will I be strong enough?
To guide her through her life

Within a second of my life
I stared into the unknown
In madness adrift my mind
The life she will endure
Within a second of my life
Time drowned me in despair
Dropping on bleeding knees
Willing to give my life for her

And then I plead my life to her
I'll be a shelter from the rain
I'll be her shield from all harm
I'll give everything and some more
With open arms, in heat or cool
My only right in a world so wrong
Will I be strong enough?
To guide her through her life

Within a second of my life
I stared into the unknown
In madness adrift my mind
The life she will endure
Within a second of my life
Time drowned me in despair
Dropping on bleeding knees
Willing to give my life for her

Is time to be the best I can
To father her through her life
And when the time comes
When she is on her own
I'll be sure to let her know
How proud I am to be her dad

Within a second of my life
I stared into the unknown
In madness adrift my mind
The life she will endure
Within a second of my life
Time drowned me in despair
Dropping on bleeding knees
Willing to give my life for her

Within a second of my life
I stared into the unknown
In madness adrift my mind
The life she will endure
Within a second of my life
Time drowned me in despair
Dropping on bleeding knees
Willing to give my life for her
