A Son of My Own Lyrics by Gordon Mote

I Will Sing

0

Riding through the yard
Upon a pony with wings
He tells the wind when to blow
The birds when to sing
And when he's tuckered out
He curls up here next to me
He is the prince of the world
And I’m the king
So I could never love the world like you do Lord
I've seen how much it costs you and I know
That I could never love the world like you do Lord
Since I had a son of my own
Sunlight flies through time and space
To rest in his hair
He has a smudge on his cheek
But why should he care
All the mеanest dinosaurs
Are tied up with string
Hе tells them
He's not afraid of anything
So I could never love the world like you do Lord
I’ve seen how much it costs you and I know
That I could never love the world like you do Lord
Since I had a son of my own
Yes the world is hurting
And cannot find peace
And millions of people
Are lost and in need
But I'd lock him away
And sing let him be
That's just what I'd do
If it was all up to me
But someday soon he'll choose
What kind of life he will make
He'll have to follow his heart
And I'll need you that day
Promise me you'll teach me how
I’ll ever let go
Now that I have
A son of my own
A son of my own
No I could never love the world like you do Lord
Since I’ve had a son
'Cause you gave me a son
And now I have a son of my own
