Riding through the yard

Upon a pony with wings

He tells the wind when to blow

The birds when to sing

And when he's tuckered out

He curls up here next to me

He is the prince of the world

And I'm the king

So I could never love the world like you do lord

I've seen how much it costs you and I know

That I could never love the world like you do lord

Since I've had a son of my own

Sunlight flies through time and space

To rest in his hair

He has a smudge on his cheek

But why should he care

All the meanest dinosaurs

Are tied up with string

He tells them

He's not afraid of anything

So I could never love the world like you do lord

I've seen how much it costs you and I know

That I could never love the world like you do lord

Since I've had a son of my own

Yes the world is hurting

And cannot find peace

And millions of people

Are lost and in need

But I'd lock him away

And sing let him be

That's just what I'd do

If it was all up to me

But someday soon he'll choose

What kind of life he will make

He'll have to follow his heart

And I'll need you that day

Promise me you'll teach me how

I'll ever let go

Now that I have

A son of my own

A son of my own

No I could never love the world like you do lord

Since I've had a son

'Cause you gave me a son

And now I have a son of my own
