I wrote this song to celebrate the birth of my sister's first child, James!
lyrics
She's thinking about future places
your occupied by faces
can't seem to find the pace
just relax and tie his laces
you are a moment in time
we'll count up the centuries when you open your eyes
tender buds reach for the sky
the world is a mystery you're a guiding light
we're growing beside, growing beside you
from where did it come the light behind your eyes
your family's with you now and we're by your side
look up and run but don't rush there's so much time
you're asleep in your nest for now but soon you will fly
we're growing beside, growing beside you
