She's falling asleep on my shoulder
I'm trying to make the noise smaller
There must be some explanation
She's chosen me for a reason
That's good, because she's just what I needed
What is she doing with me
Maybe you can choose your family
All that I can say to that is
I'm glad as hell that she chose me
Every day I pick her up
She's heavier and taller
And doesn't seem to mind at all
Having me for a father
A surprise visit from a relative
That I've always known
But never met
You're due to arrive at any day
I just can't wait to see your face
The luckiest you can get is
To have what you love
As a full-time occupation
Like I have with him and her
Vocational testing said
Consider becoming a doctor
A clown, or a pre-school teacher
Or all of the above
You're carrying my hopes
Deep into the future
The world's hardest job
Life's biggest reward
I can't wait to wait to see your face
When you have some of your own
The world's hardest job
Life's biggest reward
When I look on your sweet faces
I feel as though I'm filling up
And I'm about to
Break into a thousand pieces
And fall off the face of the earth
You and I could teach us both a lesson
You and I could teach us both a lesson
