When you reach the proper age |
|
I will teach you to read and you can turn the pages |
|
How to dress and tie your shoes |
|
Your one plus ones, and your two times two's |
|
And you'll teach me |
|
Of hearts and dreams |
|
And all the most important things |
|
And all that i have lost along the way |
|
And I can't wait |
|
As you grow, I'll show you things |
|
How to ride your bike and kick your legs out on the swings |
|
To fold your hands and bow your head |
|
How to say your prayers before you go to bed |
|
And you'll teach me |
|
Of hearts and dreams |
|
And all the most important things |
|
And all that I have lost along the way |
|
And I can't wait |
|
How do you sleep so peacefully? |
|
How do you trust unflinchingly? |
|
How do you love so faithfully? |
|
How do you dance so joyfully? |
|
Oh you'll teach me |
|
Of hearts and dreams |
|
And all the most important (essential) things |
|
And all that i have lost along the way |
|
And I can't |
|
No I can't |
|
Come teach me |
|
Of love and dreams |
|
And all the most essential thing |
|
And all that I have lost along the way |
|
Cause I can't wait |
