Lyrics:
It’s 2 am and I can’t sleep
You’ve been on my mind for weeks
I just toss and turn for hours
Rustle underneath the sheets
If I really think about it
It gets hard for me to breathe
I just wonder if I’m ready
Am I everything you need?
Cause one day soon
You’ll be here inside this room
And I’ll lie awake with you
Like my parents used to do
And if you can’t sleep
Just know I have trouble too
But it’s been much better since
Your mom told me the news
You’re on the way
Will you have my hands and feet?
I hope you get your mother’s smile
Will we listen to the classics?
Will we scream “Born to Be Wild?”
Boy, when you get older
Yeah, I’ll be your biggest fan
You can come to me whenever
Promise I won’t get mad
Cause one day soon
You’ll be here inside this room
And I’ll lie awake with you
Like my parents used to do
And if you can’t sleep
Just know I have trouble too
But it’s been much better since
Your mom told me the news
You’re on the way
Hey buddy, I know you’re not here yet, but you’re going to be here soon, and trust me we’re ready for you. Just promise me this, always be nice to your mother and try not to grow up too fast.
And one day soon
You’ll be out there on your own
Just don’t forget
With me you always have a home
And if you can’t sleep
Just know I have trouble too
But it’s been much better since
Your mom told me the news
You’re on the way
