Heartbeat 02:05
Plenty of time we've waited, now you're here You're gonna be three months old this time next year They said your baby's heartbeat reads 183 My heart beats kid for you They ran it across her skin a time or two I held to your mother's hand & looked at you And then they turned to where I stood Said everything looks good Our heart beats kid for you When I heard the beat resound I must've been the happiest guy around I can't wait to see you smile Yeah it might be a while, but won't let down They gave us a picture of you small and still Said here's your little almond, what a thrill And then your mom and I locked eyes Said that's the perfect size Our heart beats kid for you

Abigail 03:50
It's nine in the morning and I just came from The doctor to see this new life that's begun Today was your birthday but now that you're gone It's harder to tell you the things that I want, but Abigail You'd be so proud of me Twelve weeks the day that you'd be thirty-two A glimmer of joy, and enough to get through It's no consolation but my point of view I hope she turns out to be something like you Unresigned, your peace of mind was gone But you soldiered on In the worst of times you kept your eyes on love You couldn't get enough I'm proud of you You'd be proud of me too Yeah Abbi you Would be proud of me too

I'm running late, my mind's about Today's the day that we find out The kind of kid that you'll turn out to be Will you be prince or beauty queen? Either way you're gonna be Our little dream I think about you every day The things you'll love the games you'll play And whether you'll be daring or demure It doesn't matter either way We're gonna love you just the same Bold or tame We'll mess up a time or two, we'll make mistakes with you but that's ok. We can change Cause far beyond our useless pride there lies the kind of person you'll become That's number one So here we are now safe and sound I'm nervous and I'm pacing round The nurse she gives a smile and looks at me She said "I've seen all that I need, And with that said it pleases me To tell you you have got a boy" We filled with joy

You and Me 03:43
I see you moving round in there Embryonic life ain't fair But once you come around That's when it all goes down It's you and me and open air I'll take you fishing in the stream If you let me coach your baseball team I'm sure you're well aware, but Life is legendary It's gonna pass your wildest dreams You and me You'll never know just how much fun we'll be You'll be the Sundance to my Cassidy The two of us is all we'll ever need I'll teach you how to play guitar And how to drive a stick shift car We'll ride around the town From sunup to sundown And cause some mischief near and far I'll let you ride a motorbike And other stuff your mom won't like She'll probably contend You're his father not his friend But I'll tell her you're just my type You and me You'll never know just how much fun we'll be The two of us is all we'll ever need Cause we'll be classier than Frank and Dean You and me You'll be the Sundance to my Cassidy Like Merry Men we'll run as thick as thieves We'll be a modern kind of family I'd stay up for an hour or two If only just to be with you A quiet conversation filled with expectation Tomorrow we'll begin anew You and me You'll never know just how much fun we'll be Like Merry Men we'll run as thick as thieves We'll be a modern kind of family You and me You'll be the Sundance to my Cassidy And we'll be classier than Frank and Dean The two of us is all we'll ever need Oh yeah. Uh huh. My little boy

On Your Side 04:12
Life's a let go From the first roll Love's a hard road But you should know that I'll be on your side To get you through the night If you feel you're lost and down inside I'll be your guide Hearts can get cold Loved ones grow old For reasons untold But we'll be whole someday We'll find a way I'll be on your side Through the darkest night Don't care how far you wander when you roam I'll be your home My son I'll be something to lean upon When you feel like your strength is gone Yeah I'll help you carry on And In time When we don't have a hill to climb Just know in your heart that I'm Still gonna be on your side Love will find a way Good will win some days Life can be a lot to understand So I'll be your hand

She and I go way back to yester-year Yeah out of nowhere this angel appeared At first elusive but we met at last It didn't take long for us, we happened fast I made her laugh in math & chemistry Right from the start she saw the best in me We'd stay up talking till we fell asleep Don't think I've ever met a girl so sweet Hey kid, you've got a good thing going Yeah man you've got a good thing going on You'll always have a rock to lean upon Hey boy, you've got a good thing going Yeah man you got a good thing going on You'll always have the world's most loving mom She'd come and see all of my petty shows Her smiling face always the closest row And when she left for university I followed her out here for both my dreams I'd ride my bike from Hollywood to Orange. Have late night dinner there inside her dorm When we got hitched we didn't have a dime But she worked hard enough and bought us time Hey kid, you've got a good thing going Yeah man you've got a good thing going on You've got the sweetest soul to lean upon Hey boy, you've got a good thing going Yeah man you got a good thing going on You'll always have the most amazing mom I've seen her good & I have seen her bad She's still the best friend that I ever had But I won't be her only boy no more So you've got a world of happiness in store Hey boy, you've got a good thing going Yeah man you got a good thing going on You'll always have the world's most loving mom Hey kid, you've got a good thing going Yeah man you've got a good thing going on You'll always have a rock to lean upon

Lot of Life 03:35
Beautiful, you're such a lovely soul Time's so young, the world is ours to hold All the love we've seen All the joy it brings And we've still got a lot of life to go We've still got a lot of life to go You and me. I'm yours to have and hold Start a family and watch our lives unfold All the love we've seen All the joy it brings And we've still got a lot of life to go We've still got a lot of life to go Everything we've lived to see All the friends we've made along the way Time's so sly he passed us by, but All the memories are here to stay 53, the kids are growing old We've lived our dreams It's time to share the road All the love we've seen All the joy it brings It's those simple things And we've still got a lot of life to go We've still got a lot of life to go
