(Verse 1)
I still remember those summer nights,
Under the stars, holding you tight.
The scent of fresh-cut grass in the air,
As your laughter danced, without a care.
We shared our dreams on that old swing set,
Innocence wrapped in a sunset.
(Chorus)
Watching you grow, like the flowers in May,
Every step you take, I’m cheering you on your way.
Through the highs and lows, I’ll be standing true,
My heart’s full of hope, when I’m watching you.
(Verse 2)
Fast forward to high school, oh how time flew,
You walked across that stage, I was there too.
With tears of pride, I could taste the salt,
Your dreams in your eyes, no fear and no fault.
Remember that night, we talked 'til dawn,
About love and fears, how we’d always move on?
(Chorus)
Watching you grow, like the flowers in May,
Every step you take, I’m cheering you on your way.
Through the highs and lows, I’ll be standing true,
My heart’s full of hope, when I’m watching you.
(Verse 3)
Now you’re off in the world, chasing your dreams,
But I feel you close, like the warmth of sunbeams.
Those late-night phone calls, winter’s cold bite,
Your voice wrapped in love, I’m holding you tight.
I’ve seen you stumble, but you’ve always stood tall,
With every new challenge, I’m here through it all.
(Chorus)
Watching you grow, like the flowers in May,
Every step you take, I’m cheering you on your way.
Through the highs and lows, I’ll be standing true,
My heart’s full of hope, when I’m watching you.
(Bridge)
And when you look back, remember this song,
It’s a melody of love, where we both belong.
With every moment, every tear that we’ve shed,
You’ve painted my world, in colors of red.
(Chorus)
Watching you grow, like the flowers in May,
Every step you take, I’m cheering you on your way.
Through the highs and lows, I’ll be standing true,
My heart’s full of hope, when I’m watching you.
(Outro)
So here’s to the journey, wherever you go,
I’ll always be here, just watching you grow.
In the garden of life, through the joy and the pain,
I’ll keep my heart open, like the soft summer rain
