From the day that you were born
On the front seat of that old Ford
You’ve tackled life at your own pace
Friends came over building forts
And GI Joe gave way to sports
You’ve always put a smile upon my face
chorus:
Today you take your lover’s hand
My little boy is now her man
My heart’s filled as it can be with so much pride and joy
I’m dancing with the man you’ve become
My big and strong all grown up son
But somewhere deep inside of me you'll always be…
My little boy
When things were tough you did your best
Took three tries at your driver's test
And sure enough you finally earned your ride
I’ve been here through all of it
The years you spent away at Pitt
And now I send you off with your new bride
repeat chorus
bridge:
As your mother, this day's a special moment
Though I admit, it's somewhat bittersweet
I'm so happy you've found your one true love
But it feels like losing a part of me
repeat chorus
My little boy, I love you
