You're Gonna Be

You're Gonna Be
Six pounds and nine ounces looking up at me
Like I have all the answers
I hope I have the ones you need
I’ve never really done this, now I know what scared is

Sometimes I’ll protect you from everything that’s wrong
Other times I’ll let you just find out on your own
But that’s when you’ll be growing
And the whole time I’ll be knowing
You’re gonna fly with every dream you chase
You’re gonna cry, but know that that’s okay
Sometimes life’s not fair, but if you hang in there
You’re gonna see that sometimes bad is good
We just have to believe things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees, but always loved by me you’re gonna be
I’m afraid you’ll have to suffer through some of my mistakes
Lord knows I’ll be trying, oh to give you what it takes
What it takes to know the difference between getting by and living
Cos anything worth doing is worth doing all the way
Just know you’ll have to live with all the choices that you make
So make sure you’re always giving way more than you’re taking

You’re gonna fly with every dream you chase
You’re gonna cry, but know that that’s okay
Sometimes life’s not fair, but if you hang in there
You’re gonna see that sometimes bad is good
We just have to believe things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees, but always loved by me you’re gonna be
Someone’s everything, you’re gonna see
Just what you are to me
You’re gonna fly with every dream you chase
We just have to believe things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees, but always loved by me you’re gonna be
Always loved by me
