It s not an easy thing to take on alone

To watch them make their first steps

And know that you re the one

And sure there s always something though you want

To be the best father you can

And the best lover for me

Just be patient, you ll see

Nothing last forever

You can only hope you ll find

The wisdom to get through it all

Get mad , lose hope

But that ain t gonna help at all

Just be patient, patient you ll see

So It feels like

You left behind

The freedom of behing a child yourself

But just for a while

Don t start counting sacrifices

And all those sleepless nights

There is no free time, for you yet

Start to introspect

And be patient, you ll see

Nothing last forever

You can only hope you ll find

The wisdom to get through it all

Get mad, lose hope

But that ain t gonna help at all

Just be patient, patient you ll see

And before you know it

You ll find them gone

And have forgotten how hard it was

Like all these other parents

Find the courage to let go

And wished you had more time

Just be patient, you ll see

Nothing last forever

You can only hope you ll find

The wisdom to get through it all

Get mad, loose hope

But that ain t gonna help at all

Just be patient, patient you ll see

Don t hurry, you ll see

Nothing last forever

You can only hope you ll find

Enough time to see it all

Be glad, enjoy anyways

You have the strength to go for it all

Be patient, patient you ll see
