Lyrics
Your Mom and I you know
We haven?t had a single word to say
Between us now for what to you must
seem one awful endless day
The days we had together seemed so
Few
Now there?re days ahead I can?t be
There with you
So before you have to go
There?s things that you should know
Chorus
I don?t give advice, but
Beware thin ice
Put your cap on when it rainng
Drink all your milk
Wear wool and silk
The winter?s cold where you?re going
And every chance you get to dance
Put all your might ??behind it
And know I love you
Verse
Your Mom and I you know
We couldn?t overcome our differences
But you must know that you arre not
The cause of why there?s separateness
You?re the one thing that we agree
upon
You're the miracle that nearly
held our bond
And you?ll come shining through
How do I find words for you?
Chorus
