Night time when you snuggle up to my breast And look at me with those eyes full of rest Rivers of peace flow their way through my soul Bright stars of hope twinkle out in the cold Oh what a warm feeling it is to hold you What kind of wisdom will it take to mould you Into the young man gentle and kind Strong and courageous, contented and divine All our days will spin ahead And maybe time will prove it's kind And when it's all been done and said Say we'll be friends for a lifetime The world will entice you and string you along It has no regard for what's right or what's wrong But I promise to guide you in truth from the start But I pray that we'll forever be bound to your heart Take all your chances but watch where you're going Remember you'll reap all the seeds that you're sowing You keep on following after your dreams And I'll let you know what the obstacles mean All our days will spin ahead And maybe time will prove it's kind And when it's all been done and said Say we'll be friends Say we'll be friends for a lifetime
