A Father's Blessing letra

Ah, look at you, kid, you're growing up quick
And I can't seem to tell you to slow
There'll soon come a day and it scares me to death
When you tell me you're ready to go
And now you're quick as a whip with your hands on your hips
Only eyes that could rival your mom's
And so proudly l'I watch you make the world better off

So my prayer is wherever you go
May the road rise up to meet you
May the wind blow where you lead
May the Sun shine on your face while the rain falls on your fields
May the world lie down before you
May you be all you can be
But may all those roads you roam wind home to me

And I'll be at your games 'cause my folks did the same
And I'lI pour your first glass of
Bordeaux
Watch me ruin your palate for anything else
So in your youth you can't afford to get drunk
And oh, there's lips to be kissed and there's ones to missed
And you won't keep my two cents for long
So you'll make your mistakes like your Ma and Da did
Until one day you stumble on love

So, may the Lord be kind to keep you
And may the devil fear your reach
May your pockets fill with gold and yet your heart be void of greed
May the darkness bow before you
May you find the light you seek
May all those roads you roam wind home to me
May all those roads come home
May all those roads come home
Come home to me

Listen up, kid, I love you to bits And I wish life would learn to be slow
There'll soon come a day and God, I hope I'm well aged
When I tell vou it's my turn to go
And death's cruel, I'll admit, but mourn for me quick
And look after those kids of your own
And iust make different mistakes than your Ma and Da made
And make our ceiling look like your floor

So may the road rise up to meet you
May your laughter fill the streets
May your children be as kind to you as you have been to me
And when your life's been lived for all it's worth
And your grandkids let you leave
May all those roads you roam wind home to me
Oh, may all those roads you roam wind home to me
