Chorus:

You make me want to be a father

Trade my wandering path of freedom

For your soul

Oh and all I once defied

And locked so deep inside

Is on a roller coaster riding out of control



You make me want to be a teacher

Teach that love is all there is

And still there's more

Oh and everywhere I turn

And everything I learn

Shows me there's something new

I've never seen before



Words can only take a thought so far

And I've almost gone as far as I can go

To see each other as we really are

Exploring all around us

As we grow

And we grow

And we grow



You make me want to be a writer

Write this world a crazy love song

For today

Let me glide upon your smile

It beams for miles and miles

Catch it now before it sails away

Oh and words can only take a thought so far

And I guess I've gone as far as I can go

To see each other as we really are

Exploring all around us

As we grow

And we grow

And we grow



Repeat chorus
