Slow down time because it flies so fast
I’m trying to absorb the seconds while they last
Your scent, your smile the twinkle in your eye
All the firsts every low and every high

Catching tears when I’m looking at your face
You are the best part of me, you are my saving grace
And so I wish for you my love

I want you to feel loved
Want you to be free
Want you to be anything you dream you can be
Want you to have pride
Be humble in between
Don't blend into the crowd if you want to be seen

I want you to love
With your entire heart
Finish everything that you start

Want you to be still
As sweet as you are now
Even when your fears try to bring you down
I want you

Your tiny hand, is wrapped around my finger so tight
You fall asleep, all cuddled in my arms at night
I know, this will only last for so long
So I’m holding on extra tight, while I write you this song

You look at me, I’m wondering if I’m doing my best
You are everything and I am blessed
And so I wish for you my love

I want you to be strong
And stand for your belief
But have compassion for anyone that you meet

I want you to be brave
When I am not in sight
But fall into my arms so I can tell you it's alright

Take responsibility and own any mistakes
You’ll get through anything even when your heart breaks

Don’t apologize for being who you are
Shine bright you are a star
I want you

Ahh

Ahh

I want you to feel loved
Want you to be free
Want you to be anything you dream you can be

Want you to have pride
Be humble in between
Don't blend into the crowd baby you should be seen

I want you to love
With your entire heart
Finish everything that you start
Want you to be still
As sweet as you are now
Even when your fears try to bring you down

I want you

I want you

I love you
