The Best Day

I'm five years old, it's getting cold
I've got my big coat on
I hear your laugh and look up smiling at you
I run and run
Past the pumpkin patch
And the tractor rides
Look now, the sky is gold
I hug your legs and fall asleep
On the way home

I don't know why all the trees change in the fall
But I know you're not scared
Of anything at all
Don't know if Snow White's
House is near
Or far away
But I know I had the best day
With you
Today

I'm thirteen now and don't know how my friends
Could be so mean
I come home crying
And you hold me tight
And grab the keys
And we drive and drive
Until we find a town far enough away
And we talk and window shop till I forgotten
All their names

I don't know who I'm gonna talk to now at school
But I know I'm laughing
On the car ride home with you
Don't know how long
It's gonna take to feel okay
But I know I had the best day
With you
Today

I have an excellent father
His strength is making me stronger
God smiles on my little brother
Inside and out
He's better than I am
I grew up in a
Pretty house
And I've got space
To run
And I had the best days with you

There is a video I found
From back when I was three
You set up a paint set in the kitchen
And you're talking to me
It's the age of princesses
And pirate ships
And the seven dwarfs
And Daddy's smart and you're the prettiest lady
In the whole wide world

And now I know why the all the trees change in the fall
I know you were on my side
Even when I was wrong
And I love you for giving me your eyes
Staying back and watching me shine

And, I didn't know if you knew
So I'm taking this chance to say
That I had the best day
With you
Today
