I Wanna Be There |
| The first night we brought you home, it scared me half to death |
| I stood right beside your crib and counted every breath |
| Lookin' at your little face, heaven seemed so close |
| It felt all right to ask the Lord for what I want the most |
| I wanna be there when you’re one |
| And you’re just learning how to walk |
| I wanna be there when you’re two |
| An' hear the funny ways you talk |
| I wanna be there when you’re three |
| An my wall’s covered up with chalk |
| My only prayer: I wanna be there |
| I’d like to save some money so we could buy a bigger house |
| Worked harder at my job to make my family proud |
| A million things I’ve got in mind that I want to do |
| God willing, I’ve got time: that’s what I’ll give to you |
| I wanna be there when you’re fifteen |
| And you’re havin' your first date |
| I wanna be there when you’re sixteen |
| And your heart’s had it’s first break |
| I wanna be there when you’re seventeen |
| And think that you can’t wait |
| My only prayer: I wanna be there |
| I wanna be there when my little girl |
| Was walkin' down the aisle |
| I wanna be there, fightin' back the tears |
| An' tryin' hard to smile. |
| I wanna be there with your Momma |
| When you’re havin' your first child. |
| My only prayer: I wanna be there |
| My only prayer: I wanna be there |
