Words I know

Words I know

Son, I watched you grow from a boy to a man.
It was hard sitting here sometimes.
Watching you struggle along the way.

Some days I just wanted to reach down and pick you up.
Dust you off and slap you in the butt.
Tell you to keep on moving on.

Other days I just wanted to knock you down myself.
Tell you are a spoiled little one.
And that it just don’t work that way.

Either way I knew it would be tough.
To sit and watch you grow into a man.
Tough to know when to do what for you.

I wanted to be your guiding hand.
And not the steering hand.
The loving hand and not pushing you down hand.

So when to hold back and when to let go.
Was the hardest thing because I didn’t know.
I learned with you and hoped you knew that I loved you.

I could have said it a time or two.
I loved you so much and was proud of you.
Words I know that I didn’t let go.

You deserve to know though son.
I am so proud of you then and now.
I loved you so from the very day you were born.

My son, you make my World go.
Keep on doing it your way.
Cause I am so proud of my boy.

You make my World go round.
I loved watching you grow.
And now it is your time.

To make your very own.
Watch them grow.
They will make your World go too.

Just let em know that you love em too.
And keep them loving you.
They are word I know.

Words I didn’t say enough son.
So don’t you make my mistake too.
Just let em know they are the ones that make your World go round.

Son, I just have to let you know.
I loved you from the day you were born.
And I will love you even when I am gone.

They are words I know……….I love you son.
