ONLY MY BEST
There's so much you have to know
And still so much to see
I can't always protect you
From what is meant to be
Until you've grown up big and strong
I'll try to help you carry on
I'll pick you up when you've fallen down
Turn all your sad faces upside down
I'll do my best for you that's all I can say
I'll put you before me any day
Until you've grown and flown the nest
I'll do for you only my best
And when your heart is broken
Like it's been trodden on
I won't say say I told you so
I'll put the kettle on
And when you grow up and have babies all I can say
Is that they'll come first before you anyday
But until they're older and have flown the nest
You'll do your best for them, only your best
