My Girl

MY GIRL Entry number one The beginning of the end Now we will find out If the son can mend I must let nothing stop me I must not fall off the course I must me my insecurities With the necessary force And if I do, and see it through Would that mean anything to you? Would you call yourself my girl? And look at me with loving eyes Would you live, and love, and learn, and grow To understand a father’s cries? You could travel down a path of sorrow The cost is life with your soul to spend But I’ve lost so much walking down that road So it’s not something I would recommend So in these months before your birth I’ve got so many things to do Work to give myself some worth And make a better life for you
