"A Mother's Song" by Alec Delphenich (2005)

I wish that I could grow to be
The man you hope to someday see
But the world's so big
And I'm so small

I tried to see the "God"
That you told me to believe
I prayed so hard
That he would come to me

Here I stand and wouldn't you know
This is how I would grow
Up and out of your arms
Too fast for you to see

And after all that I have done
You've helped me not to come undone
"Take a deep breath"
"Calm down son"

I wish that I wasn't so old
And made just like those from the mold
It's not so easy
But you've helped me
