Placed on the edge and my toes curl over

Though there’s always a choice

Made none and thought I’d be older

Picture’s shifting, tide is rising

Choke and drift or hold, commit and swim

I will take the hand I’ve dealt and play

Deepest of blue yet still without motion

The most beautiful things can fuel fearful emotion

Splash the life in, hold her tightly

Climb upon the ridge and take it in

I will take the hand I’ve dealt and play

I will help you grow every day

First steps cold, bittеr and crazy

Weeks creep by, trip, then we’re stеady

Eyes grow wider, start to wonder

Smiles cut through the tears and we begin

I will take the hand I’ve dealt and play

I will help you grow every day

I will take the hand I’ve dealt and play

I will teach you more every day

I do love you more every day
