Well I hope that somewhere out there is a woman for you.
And I hope that someday waiting is a baby or two.
'Cause the best gifts in life are kids and a wife.
I've never wanted to be no star,
And I'm afraid that God is still the only reason
I pick up my guitar.

When you're awake I try to show you all the love I can give.
So you'll have strength for the fight
'Cause as you get older life gets harder to live
I love you more than anything else on earth.
I think about you all the time
And every night I'm praying that
The second birth will someday be the first thing on your mind.

Love might be blind
And life is very often so unkind,
But when you're trying to live the way that you should
Sometimes you don't know right from wrong, white from black
And when you're trying to love the best that you can
Baby, you don't hold nothing back.

Well, I hope that when you're older you will understand
Why your life ain't turning out exactly the way it was planned.
'Cause everything keeps changing on this crazy planet,
Sometimes I don't know what I can do
But I'm working hard for our future, so be good to your mother
And you'll make your father happy too.

Love might be blind
And life is very often so unkind,
But when you're trying to live the way that you should
Sometimes you don't know right from wrong, white from black
And when you're trying to love the best that you can
Baby, you don't hold nothing back.

Since you came into my life, these last three years
I've felt a new kind of pain
It really breaks my heart when each tour starts
And you're waving goodbye to the plane.
I'd like to live at home for the rest of my life
And spend every day playing with you,
But that's not the reason I was put on Earth.
I gotta make my Father happy too.

Well I hope that somewhere out there
It's all waiting for you
And I hope that when you get there
You know what to do.
If you fall down, get back up,
You know I love you so much
And I hope that when you're out there
You will make it through.
