Lyrics
Dear Theodosia, what to say to you? You have my eyes. You have your mother's name When you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart ♪ I'm dedicating every day to you Domestic life was never quite my style When you smile You knock me out, I fall apart And I thought I was so smart You will come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you, we'll give the world to you And you'll blow us all away... Someday, someday Yeah, you'll blow us all away Someday, someday ♪ My father wasn't around My father wasn't around I swear that I'll be around for you I'll do whatever it takes I'll make a million mistakes I'll make the world safe and sound for you... We'll come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you (on to you) We'll give the world to you (world to you) And you'll blow us all away... Someday, someday Yeah, you'll blow us all away Someday, someday Dear Theodosia, what to say to you? You have my eyes. You have your mother's name When you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart ♪ I'm dedicating every day to you Domestic life was never quite my style When you smile You knock me out, I fall apart And I thought I was so smart You will come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you, we'll give the world to you And you'll blow us all away... Someday, someday Yeah, you'll blow us all away Someday, someday ♪ My father wasn't around My father wasn't around I swear that I'll be around for you I'll do whatever it takes I'll make a million mistakes I'll make the world safe and sound for you... We'll come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you (on to you) We'll give the world to you (world to you) And you'll blow us all away... Someday, someday Yeah, you'll blow us all away Someday, someday Dear Theodosia, what to say to you? You have my eyes. You have your mother's name When you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart ♪ I'm dedicating every day to you Domestic life was never quite my style When you smile You knock me out, I fall apart And I thought I was so smart You will come of age with our young nation We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you, we'll give the world to you And you'll blow us all away...
