Riding through the yard
upon a pony with wings
He tells the wind when to blow,
the birds when to sing
An d 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 cost 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 hand
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 cost 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 billions of people are
lost and in need
But I'd lock him away and
say you let him be
Yeah, 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
Since I've had a son
Cause you gave me a son
And now I have a son of my own
