Let me tell you what I did.
Today I woke up & decided
To write a song for you, my baby girl.
I might not always be there but
I love you & I wanna share what
To my mind is so important in this world.
So before you grow up you should know.
That life is wonderful, my dear.
& the world is nothing but a mirror.
Hope that you will always choose to smile.
There are no mistakes but only lessons.
& the people that we meet are blessings,
Even if they only stay just for a while.
For a while.
Don’t listen to your mind’s voices,
When you will be making choices,
Chasing dreams, learning lessons,
Crossing roads.
Trust your heart, enjoy the journey.
& though it sounds really corny,
Live today, don’t worry what
The future holds.
& remember, I adore you, baby girl.
Life is wonderful, my dear.
& the world is nothing but a mirror.
Hope that you will always choose to smile.
There are no mistakes but only lessons.
& the people that we meet are blessings,
Even if they only stay just for a while.
People come & people go.
Seasons change, rivers flow.
You will learn the rules of the game,
Where no matter how you want them to-
Things will never stay the same.
So you will cry.
You will laugh.
You will fly the day you fall in love.
You may break your little heart,
But what seems to be the end
May end up being a new start.
Still.
Life is wonderful, my dear.
& the world is nothing but a mirror.
Hope that I have convinced you to smile.
There are no mistakes but only lessons.
& the people that we meet are blessings,
Even if they only stay for a while.
