john michael montgomery - i wanna be there lyrics
(harley allen/paul overstreet)
the first night we brought you home, it scared me half to death.
i stood right beside your crib and counted every breath.
lookin’ at your little face, heaven seemed so close,
it felt all right to ask the lord for what i want the most.
i wanna be there when you’re one,
and you’re just learning how to walk.
i wanna be there when you’re two,
an’ hear the funny ways you talk.
i wanna be there when you’re three,
an my wall’s covered up with chalk.
my only prayer: i wanna be there.
i’d like to save some money so we could buy a bigger house.
worked harder at my job to make my family proud.
a million things i’ve got in mind that i want to do.
god willing, i’ve got time: that’s what i’ll give to you.
i wanna be there when you’re fifteen,
and you’re havin’ your first date.
i wanna be there when you’re sixteen,
and your heart’s had it’s first break.
i wanna be there when you’re seventeen,
and think that you can’t wait.
my only prayer: i wanna be there.
i wanna be there when my little girl.
was walkin’ down the aisle.
i wanna be there, fightin’ back the tears,
an’ tryin’ hard to smile..
i wanna be there with your momma,
when you’re havin’ your first child..
my only prayer: i wanna be there.
my only prayer: i wanna be there.
