I'll Be With You Lyrics

It feels like yesterday that I held you close to me

Your little smiles made me what I wanted to be

A father and a friend, who loves you every day

Now it's time to let you go and bless you on your way

I showed you how to breathe, how to live and be smart

Walk the road that's yours, and I'll be with you in your heart

Built you a home, shelter from the storm

When it was cold outside, I would keep you warm

I also made mistakes which I asked you to forgive

I'll try to better myself as long as I may live

I took care of you and raised you, I taught you to be kind

Walk the road that's yours, and I'll be with you in your mind

You're my sweetest fairy, my jewel in the sky

No one can replace you, they're all just passing by

I struggled and you suffered, but I always found a key

Within the love I feel, deep inside of me

I gave you some directions, now discover what they mean

Walk the road that's yours, and I'll be with you in your dreams

You are my happiness, my laughter and my tears

When life gets rough you always face your fears

Your talents are the means to succeed when I'm not there

But I won't be gone 'cause, there's memories to share

I helped you find the tools that you will need to thrive

Walk the road that's yours and I'll be with you all your life

You need the freedom to decide which path to take

I'm by your side in every choice you make

You've got the wisdom, you've got the guts

And you know too much to argue or to judge

I always encouraged you to reach your own goals

Walk the road that's yours, and I'll be with you in your soul

Go find your place in this big society

It's time to figure out who you want to be

The world is at your feet, it's open and it's wide

I have to let you take that long, amazing ride

I love you precious babies, we'll never be apart

Walk the road that's yours, and I'll be with you in your hearts

Walk the road that's yours, and I'll stay with you in your hearts
