You can tell me that who and what I am is wrong but I won't let it get to me
You can ignore my feelings while rambling on without end but I will still try to listen
You can refuse to consider what I or anyone else wants but I will still ask what you want
No matter how you yell No matter how you argue No matter how you hurt me
I will remember
You're learning You're growing You've got a good heart You will always be my baby boy
And I will never stop loving you
You can fly o'er the mountains, fly o'er the sea Little baby bird, won't you fly home to me You can see all the flowers, you can see all the bees Little baby bird, just come back home to me
From the moment I held you I loved you with all my heart I promised that I'd do my best Even though I was so lost
Days turned into years You changed so fast The little boy I knew Has grown into a young man
We may argue and yell We so rarely agree But that will never change how much I love you
I see the best and worst of you Holding you always in my heart No matter how you change I'll always love you, my baby boy
Now you're leaving me Seeking a life you can't have here It breaks my heart to see you go But I know deep down, this is for the best
Thinking of what's best for you Even when it doesn't include me Rips out my heart But that's what it means to be a parent
I'll always be there for you I promise that now and forever I know this won't be goodbye Just the start of a new chapter
I hope this journey helps you grow I hope you find what you're looking for Know that I'll be here waiting for you And loving you always, my baby boy
When I started on this journey it was tough and it was scary Venturing into the unknown Suddenly left stranded and alone But we trudged on together We made mistakes, we learned to be better No matter what happens or what you do I’m still so proud of you
Dear Isaac,
There’s so much I love about you That I couldn’t imagine life without you The time we’ve spent together Is something I’ll cherish forever
When I was waiting and you were on your way It was impossible to imagine my life with you
You scrub and you scrub Hunting for any spots you missed After a time, you're satisfied That you got them all
I know it's hard when I go away It'd be easier if I could always stay But here's a promise to you I'll always come back for you
