You're Gonna Be

Six pounds and nine ounces
Looking up at me
Like I have all the answers
I hope I have the ones you need
I've never really done this
Now I know what scared is

Sometimes I'll protect you from everything that's wrong
Other times I'll let you just find out on your own
But that's when you'll be growing
And the whole time I'll be knowing

You're gonna fly
With every dream you chase
You're gonna cry
But know that that's okay
Sometimes life's not fair
But if you hang in there

You're gonna see
That sometimes bad is good
We just have to believe
Things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees
But always loved by me
You're gonna be

I'm afraid you'll have to suffer
Through some of my mistakes
Lord knows I'll be trying
Oh, to give you what it takes
What it takes to know the difference
Between getting by and living

'Cause anything worth doing
Is worth doing all the way
Just know you'll have to live with
All the choices that you make
So make sure that you're always giving
Way more than you're taking

You're gonna fly
With every dream you chase
You're gonna cry
But know that that's okay
Sometimes life's not fair
But if you just hang in there

You're gonna see
That sometimes bad is good
We just have to believe
Things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees
But always loved by me
You're gonna be

Someone's everything
You're gonna see
Just what you are to me

You're gonna fly (fly)
With every dream you chase
We just have to believe
Things work out like they should
Life has no guarantees
But always loved by me
You're gonna be

Always loved
By me
