Don't Grow Up Too Fast

When you find out you're gonna be a dad
Nine months goes by way too fast
And you didn't know what you didn't have 'til you have it
Then you're losing sleep, staying up all night
Can't believe how much she cries
But every tear and every smile makes you fall a little deeper

I never thought I could love like this, I guess
Every star and every wish came true
When I first held you
So grow up and be who you're gonna be
I'll be right here, anything you need
The only thing I ask
Is don't grow up too fast

I had a dream you were seventeen
And you had some guy you wanted me to meet
All I know is I think I squeezed
A little harder than I shoulda when I shook his hand
There'll be times you think I'm mean
That shirt won't work, go change those jeans
I'm old, uncool and don't know a thing
But some day you'll understand

I never thought I could love like this, I guess
Every star and every wish came true
When I first held you
So grow up and be who you're gonna be
I'll be right here, anything you need
Only thing I ask
Is don't grow up too fast

From spilled milk and training wheels
And "Daddy, he's the one"
To that day giving you away
I'm coming undone

So grow up and be who you're gonna be
I'll be right here, anything you need
The only thing I ask
Is don't grow up too fast

It goes by too fast
