[Verse 1]
I was reading Shel Silverstein while you fell asleep
Thinkin' 'bout cosmic generosity, it's a mystery
You roar like a lion, sleep like a lamb, watching your diaphragm
Breathing in and out, dancing through the clouds

[Chorus]
I can't wait to watch you see the world
With your own eyes, your own eyes

[Verse 2]
Just like me and my old man, we're watching Peter Pan fly to Neverland
Someday you'll fly away, find your own time and space
It's a unique chemistry you carry in your genes, your own memories
You'll make your own noise, sing with your own voice

[Chorus]
I can't wait to watch you see the world
With your own eyes, your own eyes
I can't wait to watch you see the world
With your own eyes, your own eyes

[Bridge]
When I see you in photographs
I can't believe how young you used to be
I don't know whether I should cry or laugh
They feel like the same thing to me
[Chorus]
I can't wait to watch you see the world
With your own eyes, your own eyes
I can't wait to watch you see the world
With your own eyes, your own eyes

[Outro]
I was reading Shel Silverstein while you fell asleep
Thinkin' 'bout cosmic generosity
