Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Tiny boots by the front door
Now they’re laced up in dress blues
From crayon marks on the hallway
To salutes and combat boots
You stand tall in that mirror
But when I look, what I see
Is the boy with the blanket
Curled up on my knee
[Chorus]
You’ll always be my baby, Nathan
My first born, my first love, my heart
From the day that I first held you
To the day that you marched off to serve and to start
Your own brave story
Out under God’s wide sky
You’re a United States Marine
But you’ll always be my baby in my eyes
[Verse 2]
Thirteen candles for my angel
Growing faster than I can believe
She's beautiful, bright as the sunrise
With her dreams rolled up in her sleeve
Between the schoolbooks and the laughter
And her plans to chase the stars
I still see that sleepy toddler
With her fingers on my heart
[Chorus]
You’ll always be my babies, both of you
My first born, my first love, my light
From the spilled milk and the bedtime songs
To the uniforms and birthday nights
Whatever roads you’re running
Wherever this life flies
You’re my boy and you’re my girl
And you’ll always be my babies in my eyes
[Bridge]
I thank God for every season
Every scraped knee, every tear
For the long talks in the kitchen
For the days you needed me near
If the world ever feels too heavy
If you ever lose your way
There’s a porch light and a mama
Who is loving you the same
[Chorus]
You’ll always be my baby, Nathan
My first born, my first love, my pride
And you, turning thirteen, shining
My sweet girl, my joy, my wild
Whatever flag you’re under
Whatever hills you climb
You’re my heart walking around
And you’ll always be my babies in my mind
