Lyric

I wonder how much longer we’ll be walking side by side

Will you start to push away, with nowhere left to hide?

When the teenage years arrive, will you drift out of my reach?

Will you ignore the very words I tried so hard to teach?

Just a little distance, growing every day

I wonder if you’ll turn your head and look the other way

So I’ll hold your tiny hand as tight as I can do

Etching all this warmth inside, a memory of you

Every single second that I’m spending by your side

Is a precious treasure that I carry with pride

A gift I’ll always keep, deep inside of me

I wonder how much longer you will call this place your home

Before you spread your wings and start to wander on your own

Following a dream of yours, you’ll fly into the sky

Finding someone new to love, as the years go by

Watching you grow up, seeing how you smile

Makes every struggle that we face so very much worth while

So I’ll hold your tiny hand as tight as I can do

Etching all this warmth inside, a memory of you

Every single second that I’m spending by your side

Is a precious treasure that I carry with pride

A gift I’ll always keep

The world is waiting for you, I can see it in your eyes

But for now, you’re here with me beneath the quiet skies

I’ll never let this feeling fade

So I’ll hold your tiny hand as tight as I can do

Etching all this warmth inside, a memory of you

Every single second that I’m spending by your side

Is a precious treasure that I carry with pride

A gift I’ll always keep, deep inside of me

In these small hands

My greatest happiness

Go on and dream, my child
