Baby please calm down, you know I never liked the sound of your pain. Bring your words above your breath, Let them out so you can let me in. Cuz I've seen these tears too many times, The ones you wipe away, I sit beside you hoping I can make them stay away. Don't you know I'll be watching you grow old? In life we get knocked down, But we'll go another round for the thrill. Just to make the same mistakes We'll be begging for a second chance. So when promises mean nothing And the world don't seem the same, When we realize there's to life, so much that you can gain, Don't you know I'll be watching you grow old? Twenty years from now, We can sit and watch our children do us proud And we'll build them up with love Before the innocence gets taken from their eyes.
