Money don't grow on trees now son be careful bout how you spend
It's one of the many things you'd say when I was just nine or ten
Not gonna tell you twice before you'd explain again
And this will hurt me more than it hurts you I never believed that then
But I see in you another father's son a man who learned before me
How the race is run
I fix my gaze upon you though seldom eye to eye
You just behind my shoulder suggesting what I try
You thought you knew it all too soon scared me to watch you grow
Hurt even more to see in you myself before all I know
Don't have to do what you say you'd say I can do this all by myself
And come back to ask me anyway when you knew you needed help
And I see as a father the proudest father's son the man who runs before me
The torch to carry on
I fix my gaze upon you praying as you go for another father's blessing
And future seeds to sow
Every father is a son every son only one father
I see the man I must become when I see myself in you
Breathing life and passing on the heart of love a father started
Blessed be the ties that bind between a father and a son
And I see as a father and I see as a son
The man who runs before me the strength to carry on
I fix my gaze upon you the race we both must run
So little time together as father and a son
This precious time together as a father and a son
