Pride is not the word I'm looking for There is so much more inside me now Oh Philip, you outshine the morning sun, my son And when you smile, I fall apart And I thought I was so smart My father wasn't around My father wasn't around I swear that I'll be around for you I'll do whatever it takes I'll make a million mistakes I'll make the world safe and sound for you... Oooh We'll bleed and fight for you We'll make it right for you Oooh Oooh Oooh Whatever it takes If we lay a strong enough foundation We'll pass it on to you We'll give the world to you And you'll blow us all away Ooh, so make The world safe and sound for you Someday, someday Someday, someday Someday Someday Yeah you'll blow us all away The world safe and sound I'll make the world safe and sound For you Someday Oooh Someday Someday Someday We'll make the world safe and sound for you Someday You will know you're strong enough foundation One day Someday
