[Intro]
In the quiet of the night, under starlit skies,
I hold my little boy, the spark in his eyes.
[Verse 1]
With every laugh and giggle, he lights up my soul,
His innocent laughter makes this broken heart whole.
He doesn’t know the battles that life has in store,
But I promise to shield him, to love him evermore.
[Pre-Chorus]
When he sees me falter, and tears start to fall,
I pull on a smile, the strongest shield of all.
This child of mine, so pure and so bright,
In his laughter I find, my own guiding light.
[Chorus]
Oh, my little boy, how you shine through the gray,
You’ll be a better man, come what may.
With every little moment, I teach you to stand,
Together we’ll walk this life, hand in hand.
[Verse 2]
He mimics my anger, then tries to make it alright,
With a hug and a smile, he chases away the night.
I see the reflection of hope in his gaze,
A life full of promise, brightening each day.
[Pre-Chorus]
When shadows surround me, I turn and I see,
The joy in your spirit sets my worries free.
This bond that we share, a treasure untold,
A tale of a father, as your hand I hold.
[Chorus]
Oh, my little boy, how you shine through the gray,
You’ll be a better man, come what may.
With every little moment, I teach you to stand,
Together we’ll walk this life, hand in hand.
[Bridge]
Every step that you take, I’ll be here by your side,
Through the storms and the rain, I will be your guide.
With lessons of love, and strength in your heart,
From the very beginning, you’ll play your own part.
[Outro]
So here’s my promise, my one little wish,
To see you grow strong, as you make your own bliss.
With laughter and love, I’ll help you to see,
My first little boy, you mean the world to me.
