Patrick Jordan - Don't Wish for Tomorrow Today Lyrics

I can't think of a time when you weren't by my side
I've watched you grow so tall
Though your vision is weak you can see to my soul
So we don' have to speak at all

Like a shadow you followed me tight to my side
Asking me wrong from right
You distract me when I try to put you to bed
So we talk all through the night

Well listen to me i've some words that are free
But they cost me dear to learn

Don't let your feet touch the ground
Dance like a child when there's no one around
And love the one that you marry someday
Just don't wish for tomorrow today

We played games that you won, there were times that you lost
But you learned to lose with a smile
And to not be afraid to admit when you're wrong
And you learned how to swallow your pride

Well listen to me i've some words that are free
But they cost me dear to learn

Don't let your feet touch the ground
Dance like a child when there's no one around
And love the one that you marry someday
Just don't wish for tomorrow today

One day i'll be gone and i'll leave you behind
And you'll have to stand on your own
Though we're heavens apart i'll be right in your heart
And in all the things I have shown

Cos you listened to me, to the words that were free
To the words that were yours to learn

Don't let your feet touch the ground
Dance like a child when there's no one around
And love the one that you marry someday
Just don't wish for tomorrow today
