Son you're growing up so fast
I knew your childhood would not last.
Don't ever change who you are
In the darkness of night you're the radiant star.

I see the good you have in you
While always showing you love me too.
I hold you tight, next to my heart
That's where I've kept you from the start.

I'll try to be there when I can
As you grow to be a man.
My love for you could fill the Earth
'Cause I'm the one who loved you first.
