(Harley Allen/Paul Overstreet) The first night we brought you home, it scared me half to death. I stood right beside your crib and counted every breath. Lookin' at your little face, heaven seemed so close, It felt all right to ask the Lord for what I want the most. I wanna be there when you're one, And you're just learning how to walk. I wanna be there when you're two, An' hear the funny ways you talk. I wanna be there when you're three, An my wall's covered up with chalk. My only prayer: I wanna be there. I'd like to save some money so we could buy a bigger house. Worked harder at my job to make my family proud. A million things I've got in mind that I want to do. God willing, I've got time: that's what I'll give to you. I wanna be there when you're fifteen, And you're havin' your first date. I wanna be there when you're sixteen, And your heart's had it's first break. I wanna be there when you're seventeen, And think that you can't wait. Letras de cancionesMy only prayer: I wanna be there. I wanna be there when my little girl. Was walkin' down the aisle. I wanna be there, fightin' back the tears, An' tryin' hard to smile.. I wanna be there with your Momma, When you're havin' your first child.. My only prayer: I wanna be there. My only prayer: I wanna be there. From Letras Mania
