First In My Eyes

You fell off the swing that day
It seems just like yesterday
I pushed you too hard
I rushed you too soon
Now you like flying high
A big boy, a bigger smile
Maybe one day you'll fly to the moon

I'll keep holding your hand for as long as you want to hold mine
I'll be reading you stories as long as for you that's alright

I know in time you will live your own life
And I hope you'll be strong
And be happy, be honest, be kind
You'll go your own way
And you'll run your own race
But wherever you finish you'll always be first in my eyes

I love singing songs with you
Or playing a board game too
We can hop on the bikes, go for a ride
I think now I understand how the child makes the man
From father to son and on down the line

I'm teaching you things but I'm learning from you all the while
So I'll tie your laces and maybe one day you'll tie mine

I know in time you will live your own life
And I hope you'll be strong
And be happy, be honest, be kind
You'll go your own way
And you'll run your own race
But wherever you finish you'll always be first in my eyes

I won't forget the day we met
They put you in my arms
I tried not to break you
I buttoned up your tiny vest
Cradled you against my chest
We made you we made you

I know in time you will live your own life
And I hope you'll be strong
And be happy, be honest, be kind
You'll go your own way
And you'll run your own race
But wherever you finish
You'll always be first in my eyes
I don't care where you finish
You'll always be first in my eyes
