Life

At the table playing memory
You turn your cards, and you smile at me
For a month now it's been the same
You are winning every single game

You're growing everyday
I slowly fade away
As I should

It's December and it's snowing light
You're turning six in a week, that's right
I look at you and your tender hands
I look at mine and I see my dads

You're growing everyday
I slowly fade away
That is life

There will be a day when you'll be stronger that me
There will be a day when you will fly away
There will be a day when you'll be wiser than me
There will be a day when I am old and grey

I sit down on the edge of your bed
We pick a book that we've never read
From out of nowhere you read aloud
But I must squint cause the font's too small

You're blooming every day
I slowly disappear
That is life

There will be a day when you'll be stronger that me
There will be a day when you will fly away
There will be a day when you'll be wiser than me
There will be a day when I am old and grey

The part of me that lives inside of you
Will be part when you set out for life
Make it big, and make every minute count
You will never get it back again
