I'm five years old

it's getting cold

I've got

my big coat on

I hear your laugh

and look up

smiling at you

I run and run

Past the pumpkin patch

and the tractor rides

look now the sky is gold

I hug your legs and fall

asleep on the way home

I don't know why

all the trees change

in the fa-a-all

I know you're not scared

of anything at a-a-all

Don't know if

Snow White's house is

near or far away

but I know I had the

best day with you today

I'm thirteen now

and don't know

how my friends

could be so mean

I come home crying

and you hold me tight

and grab the keys

And we drive and drive

until we found a town

far enough away

And we talk and

window shop till

I forgot

all their names

I don't know who

I'm gonna talk to

now at schoo-oo-ool

I know I'm laughing

in the car ride home

with you-ou-ou

Don't know how long it's

gonna take to feel okay

but I know I had

the best day

with you today

I have an

excellent father

his strength is

making me stronger

God smiles on

my little brother

inside and out

he's better than I am

I grew up in

a pretty house

and I had

space to run

and I..

Had the best days

with you

There is a video

I found from back when

I was three

You set up a paint set

in the kitchen

and you're

talking to me

It's the age of princesses

and pirate ships and

the Seven Dwarfs

Daddy's smart

and you're the

prettiest lady in

the whole wide world

Now I know why

all the trees change

in the fa-a-all

I know you were

on my side

even when I was wrong

and I love you for

giving me your eyes

Staying back and

watching me shine and

I didn't know

if you knew

So I'm taking

this chance to say

that I had the best day

with you today
