Lyrics
Just yesterday, I held you for the first time
Rosy cheeks, soft golden hair
My sweet baby boy, you were finally here
How we laughed when your teacher called
She said you shouldn't be kissin' girls in the first grade
These memories my son, will never fade
chorus
Takin' in the world around you
I still see life through your eyes
God is with you my son and in each sun rise
Growin' up too fast for me my son
First steps, trykes and dirt bikes, singing me your ABC's
The look in your eyes when I handed you keys
Playin' tag with the guard rail, the guard rail always wins
Excitement on your face, did my horror show?
Your first tasted of freedom....my letting you go
You're making a new family, the time has come
Corey we're so proud the man you've become
