Verse 1
He used to reach for my hand,
Now he’s making bigger plans,
Got a mind that runs a mile a minute,
Trying hard to find his place in it.
Some days he’s quiet, some days loud,
Walking that line between lost and proud,
But underneath that changing face,
I still see my baby in the frame.
Pre-Chorus
Time moves fast, I wish it slow,
Trying to teach while letting go,
Watching him grow right in front of me…
Chorus
Oh, my son
Learning life as it comes undone,
Big dreams living in his eyes,
Trying to figure out this life.
Through the highs and the hard days too,
I’ll be standing right beside you,
No matter who you grow into,
I’ll always be proud of you.
Oh, my sweet son
Verse 2
Late night laughs and long car rides,
Big life questions he tries to hide,
Strong on the outside, heart so deep,
Carrying worries he don’t always speak.
Watching him fight for who he’ll be,
Teaching strength and empathy,
It’s bittersweet to watch him run,
Toward the man he’s becoming.
Pre-Chorus
Every lesson, every mistake,
Every road he’s gonna take,
I hope he knows he’s never alone…
Chorus
Oh, my son,
Learning life as it comes undone,
Big dreams living in his eyes,
Trying to figure out this life.
Through the highs and the hard days too,
I’ll be standing right beside you,
No matter who you grow into,
I’ll always be proud of you.
Oh, my sweet son…
Bridge
One day this house will feel too quiet,
No shoes by the door, no midnight riot,
But for now I’ll hold these moments tight,
Every laugh, every late-night drive.
Final Chorus
Oh, my son,
You don’t have to carry the weight alone,
You’re stronger than you even know,
And wherever this life may go,
I’ll be cheering every step you take,
Through every win and every heartbreak,
Forever proud of who you’ve become,
My beautiful son.
Outro
Yeah, growing fast… but you’ll always be my boy.
