Best foot forward, working hard,I learned from my father
Important for my family to have a dad that's like no other
Patience and concern, understanding, learned from my mother
Important for resolve, your mother will keep you covered
Will it all come true to me, like a bird up in the tree
Spending years just looking down, In the end all comes around
I want you to look at me and to imagine what you'll see
I know I think of you and I can imagine what you will be
See you as a child, now, with infinite possibilities
Give you understanding, give you patience, responsibilities
Will it all come true to me, like a bird up in the tree
Spending years just looking down, In the end all comes around
I hate to tell you, to be honest, this didn't come to pass
You were born, in our arms, your breathe didn't last
The picture window, across the landscape, life still moving fast
In our hearts, life it stopped, now your memory just lasts
Will it all come true to me, like a bird up in the tree
Spending years just looking down, In the end all comes around
