I'm five years old, it's getting
cold, I've got my big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up
smiling at you, I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch and the
tractor rides, look now, the sky is gold
I hug your
legs and fall asleep on the way home
I don't know why all the trees
change in the fall
But I know
you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is
near or far away
But I know I
had the best day with you today
I'm thirteen
now and don't know how my friends could be so mean
I come home
crying and you hold me tight and grab the keys
And we drive and drive until we
found a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop 'til
I've forgotten all their names
I don't know who I'm gonna talk to
now at school
But I know I'm laughing on the car
ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take
to feel okay
But I know I had the best day with
you today
I have an
excellent father, his strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother,
inside and out, he's better than I am
I grew up in a pretty house and I
had space to run
And I had the best days with you
There is a video I found from back
when I was three
You set up a paint set in the
kitchen and you're talking to me
It's the age of princesses and
pirate ships and the seven dwarfs
And Daddy's
smart and you're the prettiest lady in the whole wide world
And now I know why the all the trees
change in the fall
I know you
were on my side even when I was wrong
And I love
you for giving me your eyes
For staying
back and watching me shine
And I didn't know if you knew, so
I'm takin' this chance to say
That I had the best day with you
today
