I'm five years old
It's getting cold
I've got my big coat on

I hear your laugh 
And look up smiling at you
I run and run

Past the pumpkin patch
And the tractor rides up now
The sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep
On the way home

I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
I know you're not scared of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's house is near or far away
But I know I had the best day with you
Today

I'm thirteen now
And don’t know how my friends 
Could be so mean

I come home crying 
And you hold me tight
And grab the keys

And we drive and drive
Until we've found a town 
Far enough away

And we talk and window-shop
Till I've forgotten
All their names

I don't know how 
I'm gonna talk to now at school 
I know I'm laughing on the car ride home with you
Don't know how long it's gonna take to feel ok
But I know I had the best day with you
Today

I have an excellent father 
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother 
Inside and out he's better than I am

I grew up in a pretty house
And I had space to run
And I had the best days with you 
Today

There is a video I found from back
When I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen 
And you're talking to me

It's the age of pricesses and pirate ships
And the seven dwarfs
Daddy's smart and you're the prettiest lady in
The whole wide world

Now I know why the trees change in the fall
I know you're on my side 
Even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
Staying back and watching me shine
And I didn't know if you knew so I'm taking this chance to say
That I had the best day with you 
Today
