lyrics

Verse 1:
Baby…
As we drive on through the night
Underneath a California moon

You sleep…
In the seat there by my side
As my mind slips back a short decade or two

Seems just like I’m standing still
As the world moves on by
I know I have to let you go
But somewhere in my mind…
I hear…

Chorus:
Daddy can you help me
Learn to ride my bike?
Kiss and make it better
Sing that song I like,
The one…with Pooh Bear and a kite

I can’t believe you grew up so soon
As I sit and watch you sleep
Under the California moon

Verse 2:
Baby…
As you prepare to start a life
In a world where I’m not part of every day
Inside me…
Pride and sadness war
As I realize you’re finally on your way

It’s hard for me to reconcile
The woman from the child
Is it wrong to want to hold onto
My little baby for a while?

Bridge:
It’s not that I’m not proud
Of the woman you’ve become
You’re so much more
Than any dad deserves

But driven ‘cross this desert
In the middle of the night
You slip a little farther away
With every mile passing by
And again, I hear…

Chorus: (softly)
Daddy can you help me
Learn to ride my bike?
Kiss and make it better
Sing that song I like,
The one…with Pooh Bear and a kite

When can we go shopping?
Time to poor the tea
Promise that you’ll always
Be right here for me
I love you…Daddy set me free…

I can’t believe you grew up so soon
As we drive on through the night and you
sleep
Under the California moon…
Under the California moon…
Baby, come home…soon…
