Chorus:
I’ll miss the boy, though I know I’ll love the man
And I can’t wait to meet him when you come back again
And I hope he seeks my counsel, and I pray that we’ll be friends
The future holds so much we will enjoy, but I will miss the boy
Verse 1:
Guess this is it, times finally brought us here
I can tell your ready, you see your future clear
And I’m excited for you, and I know you need to go
There’s just one more thing that I want you to know
Verse 2:
It’s not just talk, when I tell you that I’m proud
You heard your nation calling, and you answered clear and loud
We always tried to teach you, what you’d need to find your way
But mom and I will miss the boy, you leave behind today
Verse 3:
You’re going places, like I’ve always wanted to
And I can’t wait to hear about, the things your gonna do
I couldn’t be more happy, but if I seem a little sad
I’ll always be your father, but I’ll miss just bein’ dad
Bridge:
Don’t miss the moment as it passes by, it won’t come this way again
Don’t waste your strength trying to hold back time, just enjoy the time
you’re in
