Just Like You

[JEN]
You should see this kid
It's frightening
The way he reminds me
Of someone I once knew
How he loves baseball
And hates tomatoes
The way he sleeps with his arm
Tucked under his neck
It's so true
He sleeps just like you

You're completely in the shade now
It's amazing
The way this tree grew
Things get so big
Time flies away
Hey — happy thirty-two
I brought you a present
He looks just like you

Tomorrow he's going to camp
And I can't deal with it
I've barely ever let him out of my sight
I know that it's just the start
Now that he's growing up
Leaving home, taking flight

You should see this kid
Your namesake
I wonder back when I did that
If I knew
That every time I call out his name
I'd be there again pushing you away
And that shitty goodbye and that terrible day
And all that I know is I won't fail my son
The same way I failed you

Should see this kid
I wish you could see this kid
But that's just like you
You always talked back
You always fought back
You're not coming back
But I won't let my baby leave me too
No, I won't let him
Be just like you
Not like you
