Hello, my son, welcome to earth
You may not be my last but you'll always be my first
Wish I'd done this ten years ago but how could I know, how could I know
That the answer was so easy
I've been told you measure a man by how much he loves
When I hold you, I treasure each moment I spend on this earth, under heave above
Grandfather always said God's a fisherman
And now I know the reason why
And if some times daddy has to go away
Please don't think it means I don't love you
Oh, how I wish I could be there everyday
Cause when I'm gone it makes me so sad and blue
And holding you is the greatest love I've ever known
When I get home it breaks my heart
Seeing how much you've grown all on your own
Hearing you cry makes me cry, it made me cry
Hearing me cry A thousand miles away
Every cry (greatest love I've ever known)
