Take Great Care

Hold your head high my Son For this cut will heal, what’s done is done As time follows on you will learn There is much hurt, but love you’ll yearn Gifted with the feeling of pain Cursed by the effect, love will drive you insane When the time comes, hold her dear With you by her side, she’ll have nothing to fear Such a tender heart beating inside you I just know the skies above will never remain blue I’ll be there ‘till the day I die Helping you every step of the way, until you can fly I will always do what you think is best Comfort, in the knowledge you can do the rest Unconditional is the love for my boy I’ll never break your heart, just like your best toy. Be the man I know you are Learn from my mistakes, trust me you’ll go far
