Baby Boi
You shouldn't waste your time
Waiting foryour child to grow
Cherish the time you have with themnow
For tomorrow will become yesterday
And yesterday will become a month
A month will become a year
A year, a lifetime ago...
Before you know it
He'll be talking, then walking
Going to school, playing sports
Driving, dating girls
Getting a job, getting in trouble
Getting in fights, getting his heart broken
Moving out and starting his only family
Leaving you wonder where time when
Love the moment you're innow with him
For it won't last forever
Forgive the back talk
Forgive the trouble making
Forgive the fights and late nights
Remember you where young once too
Be proud of him no matter what
He does or becomes
For he will learn how to be a man
By watching and listening to you
So walk tall, stand proud
And I hoipe you have a Happy Father's Day
This is to my cute Andy Tovarez
