[00:39.469] My son is almost three
[00:42.299] He used to look just like his dad, but right now he looks just like me
[00:48.851] And as far as I can see
[00:51.552] The fruit I bear is sweet
[00:54.473] But the apple's rolling real far from the tree
[00:58.677] And falling down the hill so full of love and so carefree
[01:03.995] I wonder if the world will treat him any better than it treated me
[01:10.729] Well Papa, don't you preach
[01:13.648] I try to teach him every day that nothing good is free, but oh, it should be
[01:21.775]
[01:24.390] And with all my roots above
[01:28.087] And all my branches down below
[01:32.659] Please tell my boy I love him so
[01:37.643] Please tell the world I have to grow before I go
[01:41.214] Well, I just wanted you to know
[01:45.633]
[01:46.166] That I believe in magic and I believe in sin
[01:50.898] I still believe in Heaven if they'll never let me in
[01:55.801] I started to believe in love the day I met my little twin
[02:00.501] I think I might start tryin'
[02:02.831] Because I haven't been
[02:10.827]
[02:13.214] My mama's getting old
[02:16.030] Well, it's contagious and you catch it like a cold
[02:20.788] She won't admit it, but it's something that I know
[02:25.550] 'Cause every year that passes for me passes her a hundredfold
[02:30.102]
[02:32.798] Back in the day
[02:34.750] My dad and I would share a laugh at all of her mistakes
[02:39.985] But that alliance didn't save me from her fate
[02:44.420] No, I didn't last till twenty-eight
[02:47.340] Became a single mom, just crushed under the weight
[02:51.172] Of a child growing faster than I think that I can take
[02:56.207] I love him anyway
[02:59.313] And I remind myself a time will come when he sees me turn grey
[03:05.429] And realizes too late
[03:07.752] Like I did with my mother
[03:09.966] So now I tell her to her face
[03:17.150]
[03:19.545] With all my roots above
[03:23.290] And all my branches down below
[03:27.873] Please tell my mom I love her so
[03:32.707] Please tell the world I have to grow before I go
[03:36.458] Well, I just wanted you to know
[03:39.880]
[03:41.204] That I believe in magic and I still believe in sin
[03:46.070] I still believe in Heaven if they'll never let me in
[03:50.966] I started to believe in love the day I met my little twin
[03:55.868] And I might start tryin'
[03:57.962] Because I haven't been
[04:03.955]
[04:05.831] I haven't been
[04:35.475]
[04:36.708] But I love him so
