Choir! Choir! Choir! Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I've got time to help you grow
I can no longer hold your hand
As a boy becomes a man
I have to let you face the world
To fight and learn to love
To watch your loved ones die
Oh what have I done
I'm so sorry my son
I brought you into this world
Oh what have I done
Hiding from you, my guard is always up
Trying to set an example from the down and out
Time is all I have with you
The time of my life
But we've got time to talk it over
And I've got time to help you grow
I can no longer hold your hand
As a boy becomes a man
Becomes the man

I will never find another lover sweeter than you
Sweeter than you
And I will never find another lover more precious than you
More precious than you
Girl you are close to me you're like my mother
Close to me you're like my father
Close to me you're like my sister
Close to me you're like my brother
You are the only one you are my everything and for you this song I sing
And all my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do love me too
I said you're all that I'm thinking of, baby
Said, I promise to never fall in love with a stranger
You're all I'm thinking of, I praise the Lord above
For sending me your love, I cherish every hug
I really love you
And all my life, baby, baby, I've prayed for someone like you
And I thank God that I, that I finally found you, baby
All my life I've prayed for someone like you
And I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do, love me
You're all that I ever known, when you smile, on my face, all I see is a glow
You turned my life around, you picked me up when I was down
You're all that I ever known, when you smile on your face all I see is a glow
You picked me up when I was down
You're all that I ever known, when you smile on your face all I see is a glow
You picked me up when I was down and I hope that you feel the same way too
Yes, I pray that you do love me too
