Lyrics
Don’t Be Afraid
I remember before you talked
I remember when you couldn’t walk
I remember when you first stood up
On your own
Those days come and go so fast
Precious moments never last
Now that the years have come to pass
I guess it’s time for me to go
But don’t be
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming
No don’t be
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming next baby
I taught you all I know
And I got to watch you grow
Now you've got babies of your own
And I hope you’ll watch them too
They’ll be strong, just let ‘em fight
Tell them it’s okay to cry
Try to teach them wrong from right
The way that I showed you
And don’t be
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming
No don’t be
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming next baby
And don’t be scared
Of these dark days to come
‘Cause I’ll be there
Long after I’m gone
And I know you’ll be fine
I can’t wait to see
‘Cause you’re strong and you’re kind
Just like me
So don’t be
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming
No don’t be
Don’t be afraid of life without me
Don’t be
Don’t be afraid of what’s coming
No don’t be
Don’t be afraid of life without me
You’ll never be without me
No you’ll never be without me
