10/25

From that very first night

To that very first ride

When you became mine

I swore I’d protect you

 

I’d never held anything

That was quite so delicate

You were so beautiful

You were my little man

 

I watched you grow

And come into your own

You were always a loner

You took after me

 

Your life wasn’t easy

It was filled with heartache

There were so many times

You struggled to get by

 

I’d never felt so helpless

There was nothing I could do

I wanted to fix you

But I didn’t know how

 

But from that very first ride

To that that very last night

Every second you belonged to me

Was the greatest of my life
