My son my sun

Verse 1

Used to chase a fairy tale

Gave my heart to every name

Thought I'd find a prince to save me

Ended up collecting bruises and blame

Stood in castles that were hollow

Wore the crown that never fit

Every promise turned to sorrow

Every bedtime story whispered lies bit by bit

Pre-Chorus

Then I locked my chest

Bolted every door

Swore I'd never let

My heart break anymore

Chorus

But you walked in

No warning no key

You didn't need a spell

You just saw me

My son my sun

You loved what overflowed

First one to take it all

And give it back tenfold

Post-Chorus

(I see you grow) I see you grow

(I watch you grow) I watch you grow

Verse 2

I kept that box for years and years

Dust on every turning lock

Too afraid to feel the ache again

Too tired to take the shock

Then you laughed and grabbed my hand

Like I'd always been enough

You never asked me to be less

You never called my love too much

Pre-Chorus

So I cracked it wide

Let the hinges groan

Found a different kind

Of love I've never known

Chorus

But you walked in

No warning no key

You didn't need a spell

You just saw me

My son my sun

You loved what overflowed

First one to take it all

And give it back tenfold

Post-Chorus

(I see you grow) I see you grow

(I watch you grow) I watch you grow

Bridge

Princess of their legends

I let that story die

You're the hero of my chapters now

And I'm so proud to see you fly

Chorus

You walked in

No warning no key

You didn't need a spell

You just saw me

My son my sun

You loved what overflowed

First one to take it all

And give it back tenfold

Post-Chorus

(I see you grow) I see you grow

(I watch you grow) I watch you grow
