Austin’s Song

[Verse 1]
I picked you up from school today
Should have seen the look on your face
Said you were an astronaut
And just went to the moon
And next week you’ll be flyin’ planes as Spider-Man to save the day You don’t know your dreams will change but I do
And I know your first sip of mom’s rum won’t be when you turn 21
And not every friend that you meet at 15 will be there at 50

[Chorus]
And I know, the world can be quite scary
Make you feel so ordinary
Tell you who you’ll be before you're 6
You’re gonna have to fall a few times
‘Fore you finally hit your stride
Hope you don’t forget to take a risk
‘Cause you’re just a kid

[Verse 2]
Dropped you off at school today
Wish you’d see the look on your face
Didn’t want your friends to see your sister, you’re too cool
You’re 16 now and you’re doing fine
School sucks, but you’ll be alright
Got nothin’ figured out, oh, no
And I know you’re gonna feel heartbreak
You’re going to have lots of bad days
Some of your friends will be fake and two-faced
It’s too much to take in

[Chorus]
And I know the world can be quite scary
Make you feel so ordinary
Tell you who you’ll be before you’re 6
You’re gonna after fall a few times
'Fore you finally hit your stride
Hope you don’t forget to take a risk
'Cause you’re just a kid

[Outro]
Time goes by a little quicker
I’ll always be your big sister
Love you to the moon and back
And this, Austin, I promise
