I do most everything wrong
Even on the day you were born
My husband's been lying and cheating
And I turn my cheek and reason
I change my tune everydayThere is one thing I want you to be
That is smarter than me
If things they don't seem right
Open your wings and take flight
Don't stick around to watch the pieces fallI don't want you to feel alone
But you probably will when you are older
I will try to stay alive
To see as much through your eyes
But one day you know I will goDon't listen too much to what I say
Making sense has never been my way
I can teach you 1-2-3
I can dance with you on repeat
I can hold your hand forever
Na na na na na na
I can do so much
You can do so much moreI am only a stepping stone
For you to get where you must go
And there is nothing I would rather be
So put your weight on me
Na na na na na na na ohI am your protector
I am not your pretender
I will try
I will not lie
I will not cry too much in front of youI have been really, really sad
Except for having you with your dad
