days that we spent when i was so small never let me fall 
you never let me fall taught me to see the right and the wrong
oh i`m not that strong wish i was that strong
you`ve been good to me tending my every need
just look what i am can`t you see--it`s you in me so 

when all is said and done 
look before you--i`m your son 
can`t you see it`s you in me a man... 

now i`m a man time has gone fast 
i didn`t want it to i didn`t want it to
went on my way like a crazy young fool 
i never wanted to i never wanted to you`ve been good to me
tending my every need just look what i am can`t you see--it`s you in me 

when all is said and done 
look before you--i`m your son 
can`t you see it`s you in me a man...
