It's so late its early He straightens his tie The morning news is on the TV He rubs his weary eyes There is so much behind these eyes There is so much behind He takes the same route to town He lets his mind run around Back about 20 years ago He's got a brand new baby boy I know he has got your eyes dear But I think he's got my heart (Chorus) Maybe someone should tell him that life don't always give back just what you put in, 'cause if it did it seems you should be the richest man You've given me faithfulness and you Taught me to always be true Well all I have to give back is to remind you of you He held my hand 'til it hurt him But then it hurt to let me go To watch and to love from a distance it always hurts when we grow That's what he always said I think there is so much ahead (Chorus) But in life be strong, because there are easier wrongs And much tougher rights Well when you needed to be gone, I felt a need to belong And be a part of your life So maybe life, it gives back just what you put in And maybe I am the richest man, for just knowing you If I could be half as faithful, and half as true I still wouldn't come close to saying how much I love... You know I never minded them saying how much I look like... And all I have to give back to you is to remind you of you just a little bit of you
