Time slips by, we learn
Changing from year to year
The mirror image burns
Magnifies the fear
Silent and clear
Staring back at me
Fleetingly Near
I recall and find
A Hostage standing there
Young and restless mind
A heavy cross to bear
Please take your time
And don't be afraid
Of falling behind
I can still see, all that could be slipping out of reach
All Your dreams and destiny
Being all that you could be
I will say the words to you
And I pray they find you willingly
So I say unto my Son
That Your life has just begun
All your hopes and aspirations
Hold on tight, until you've won
Running through the years
Days and nights have past
Distant memory's
It went by so fast
Pause and rewind
And never once regret
What you've left behind
I see clearly, all you can be, it's just within your reach
All Your dreams and destiny
Being all that you could be
I will say the words to you
And I pray they find you willingly
Now I say unto my son
That Your life has just begun
All your hopes and aspirations
Hold on tight, until you're done
So sincerely, keep on dreaming,
It's just within your reach
All Your dreams and destiny
Being all that you could be
So I say the words to you
And I pray they find you willingly
Now reflected in my Son
And his life has just begun
All the hopes and aspirations
Hold on tight, until you're done"
