 It  s not an easy thing to take on  alone
 To watch them make  their first steps
 And know  that you re the one
 And sure  there s always something though you  want
 To be the best father you  can
 And the best lover  for me
 Just be patient,  you ll  see
 Nothing  last forever
 You can only  hope you  ll find
 The wisdom  to get  through it all
Get  mad , lose hope
 But that  ain t gonna help  at all
 Just be patient,  patient  you ll see
So  It feels like
 You left behind
 The freedom  of behing a child yourself
But  just for a while
Don  t start counting sacrifices
And  all those sleepless nights
There  is no free time, for you yet
Start  to introspect
 And be patient,  you ll see
 Nothing  last forever
 You can only  hope you  ll find
 The wisdom  to get  through it all
Get  mad, lose hope
 But that ain  t gonna help  at all
 Just be patient,  patient  you ll see
 And before you know  it
 You ll find them  gone
 And have forgotten  how hard it was
 Like all  these other parents
 Find the courage  to let go
 And wished  you had more time
 Just be patient,  you ll see
 Nothing  last forever
 You can only  hope  you ll find
 The wisdom  to get  through it all
Get  mad, loose hope
 But that  ain t gonna help  at all
 Just be patient,  patient  you ll see
 Don t hurry,  you ll see
 Nothing  last forever
 You can only  hope  you ll find
 Enough  time to  see it all
Be  glad, enjoy  anyways
 You have  the strength to  go for it all
 Be patient,  patient  you ll see
