As I look at you here now, just ten years of age
A tear forms in my eye, for where went the days...

Love is you being there when things are bad
Taking the unhappy along with the glad...

Who's to say what we might do
When love might pass our way...

I'm writing this poem for my son
He really wanted a funny one...

I know sometimes baby
That you don't feel secure...

I don't know just how to express
Exactly the way I feel...

DAMN the bloody ocean!!!
And the miles that separate...

What is our world coming to?
Why is it filled with so much hate...

Alone and contemplating life,
Wishing you were here...

Just the simple things, Sweetheart
Are what I'm yearning for...

You are not yet mine,
But I'm drifting once again...

I can't go to sleep just yet...
"nightdreaming" of your sweet voice...
