It s not an easy thing to take on alone
               F                        
To watch them make their first steps
     G
And know that you re the one
     C                                    Am

To be the best father you can

And the best lover for me

The wisdom to get through it all

Get mad , lose hope

But that ain t gonna help at all
        F          G             C
Just be patient, patient you ll see

So It feels like

You left behind
      Am                         F              
The freedom of behing a child yourself
G
But just for a while

C
Don t start counting sacrifices
Am
And all those sleepless nights

There is  no free time, for you yet
G
Start to introspect

The wisdom to get through it all

But that ain t gonna help at all
        F          G             C
Just be patient, patient you ll see

And before you know it
             F 
You ll find them gone
           G                   C
And have forgotten how hard it was

Like all these other parents

Find the courage to let go
       F                 G                                 
And wished you had more time

Just be patient, you ll see
 C             Am
Nothing last forever
          F    G
You can only hope you ll find

The wisdom to get through it all
