When I was younger
I told my mother
I say one day I'm gonna make you proud
Now that I'm older
Its so much harder
To say those words out loud
Your growing taller
A little smarter
And one day your gonna leave home
Oh will you look like your mothers father
Oh when you are fully grown
Ooh ooh ohh oh oh oho ho
When I was younger I asked my father
Why are we so human
Now that I'm older
I think I figured it out
Were just doing what we can
Oh oooh oh oh
Cause I wont
I wont lay you down
I wont lay you
I wont lay you down oh now
I wont I wont lay down
I wont lay you I wont lay you I wont, I wont lay you down
When I was younger I told my mother
I say one day I'm gonna make you proud
