I was watching you sleep the other day,
And how I prayed that it would last.
The peace that rested on your face,
I'd never seen that in the past.
I was watching you talk about him the other day,
And hoped you would go on.
The way your words, they had no end,
Your spirit seemed so strong.
I was watching you fight the other day,
And prayed my tears would dry.
All this, I knew was to protect me,
And I couldn't figure out why.
I was watching you smile the other day,
And I stared in total awe.
Was it him who made you shine?
Was that triumph that I saw?
And all this time you've waited,
And all this time you've helped,
And all the things you sacraficed,
For me to grow-up well.
But I was watching you the other day,
And i relized I can't wait,
To tell you how much i appreciate,
And love you in every way.
