作曲 : Pending My son is almost three He used to look just like his dad, but right now he looks just like me And as far as I can see The fruit I bear is sweet But the apple's rolling real far from the tree And falling down the hill so full of love and so carefree I wonder if the world will treat him any better than it treated me Well Papa, don't you preach I try to teach him every day that nothing good is free, but oh, it should be
And with all my roots above And all my branches down below Please tell my boy I love him so Please tell the world I have to grow before I go Well, I just wanted you to know
That I believe in magic and I believe in sin I still believe in Heaven if they'll never let me in I started to believe in love the day I met my little twin I think I might start tryin' Because I haven't been
My mama's getting old Well, it's contagious and you catch it like a cold She won't admit it, but it's something that I know 'Cause every year that passes for me passes her a hundredfold
Back in the day My dad and I would share a laugh at all of her mistakes But that alliance didn't save me from her fate No, I didn't last till twenty-eight Became a single mom, just crushed under the weight Of a child growing faster than I think that I can take I love him anyway And I remind myself a time will come when he sees me turn grey And realizes too late Like I did with my mother So now I tell her to her face
With all my roots above And all my branches down below Please tell my mom I love her so Please tell the world I have to grow before I go Well, I just wanted you to know
That I believe in magic and I still believe in sin I still believe in Heaven if they'll never let me in I started to believe in love the day I met my little twin And I might start tryin' Because I haven't been
I haven't been
But I love him so
