On the day you were born, I was 21 years old
I didn't know what I was doin', but I thought I knew it all
On the day that you were born, I held you in my arms
I prayed that God would protect you, and keep you safe from harm
On the day you were born
If I could do this all over again
What would I do, what would I do to make amends
I'd be more patient, I'd be more kind
I'd simply spend, I'd simply spend more precious time
On the day that you were born, I didn't realize
All of the mistakes, that I'd make though-out your life
And my heart is breaking, through your suffering and pain
But know my love is endless, its always been the same
Since the day you were born
If I could do this, all over again
What I would do, what I would do to make amends
I'd be more patient, I'd be more kind
I'd simply spend, I'd simply spend more precious time
Time is illusive
And we can't turn it back
All I want is for us to remember the lifetime of love that we've had
Can we just do this all over again
We both did our best, no more regrets, forgive what has been
Just let me love you, remember when
It was just us, nothing but love, just like it was
On the day you were born
