Dear Theodosia

Dear Theodosia, what to say to you?
You have my eyes, you have your mothers name
When you came into the world, you cried
And it broke my heart
Im dedicating every day to you
Domestic life was never quite my style
When you smile, you knock me out, I fall apart
And I thought I was so smart
You will come of age with our young nation
Well bleed and fight for you
Well make it right for you
If we lay a strong enough foundation
Well pass it on to you, well give the world to you
And youll blow us all away
Someday, someday
Yeah, youll blow us all away
Someday, someday
Oh Philip, when you smile I am undone
My son, look at my son
Pride is not the word Im looking for
There is so much more inside me now
Oh Philip, you outshine the morning sun
My son
When you smile, I fall apart
And I thought I was so smart
My father wasnt around (my father wasnt around)
I swear that Ill be around for you
Ill do whatever it takes (Ill make a million mistakes)
Ill make the world safe and sound for you
Will come of age with our young nation
Well bleed and fight for you
Well make it right for you
If we lay a strong enough foundation
Well pass it on to you, well give the world to you
And youll blow us all away
Someday, someday
Yeah, youll blow us all away
Someday, someday
