Always
From the day that he was born
He meant the world to me
I said I'd always be there
That i would never leave
Someone to hold his hand
Someone to lead the way
To tuck him in each night
And be there every day
He said it's just the two of us
It's always you and me
Thats the way it always was
How it's supposed to be
But changes come and go
It's just a part of life
Too young to understand
He just knows that it's not right
How do i make him understand
How can i make him see
The way it always was
Can now no longer be
You say it's for the best
But is that really true
Every minute that you're gone
Is a minute that you lose
Is it really worth it
Is it what you need to do
If he gains the world
But loses part of you
Choices hard and full of pain
So think before you act
Because precious moments lost
Are never coming back
