You're My Child Always

The day you were born I realized

Life won't be bad with you by my side

Now that you're here we'll be the best of friends

I'll stick with you until the end

I'll try to teach you to grow to be wise

I'll always be proud of you as long as you try

I sincerely hope your dreams come true

All of mine are now through you

You have filled me with pride and joy

Your sounds of life I truly enjoy

I'm anxiously waiting to watch you grow

You'll always be centerstage in my show

The most precious words to me now

Are when I say "you're my child"

When you're down and confused

Come talk to me I'll help you through

I want you to know no matter what you do

I'll be right here to stand by you

When you marry and have kids of you own

Your family's always welcome to my home

I'll share with you and yours more than blood

I'll always share my never ending love
