You and your dad are dancing in the kitchen
Life is slowing down, but it's still bitchin'
I got myself a rod, but I could break it
My back is still as strong as I can make it
Plus you're mine
So who would rush right through it, child of mine?
Child of mine
Child of mine
Everything you want is in your reach right now
And anything that's not I have to teach somehow
Everything about you is intuitive
So those who miss the point might rush right through it
'Cause it's fine
But I don't want to miss it, child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
Last night in your sleep, you started crying
I can't protect you there, though I keep trying
Sometimes you'll go places I can't get to
But I've spoken to the angels who'll protect you
Because you're mine
They cast their golden light across this child
Child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
"Long nights, fast years," so they say
Time won't ever feel the same
And I don't want to miss it
No, I don't want to miss it
And I'm not gonna miss it, child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
Child of mine
