Happy Birthday

Wow, thats crazy its been three years already If you were here we'd probably have cake and confetti I still wonder sometimes if you'd be a girl or a boy I'd probably have to run to the store to pick up some toys I'll never know what day would've been your birthday I'm sorry that we rejected that as something you could say Your mommy and I were young, we were both full of fear I really wish we all could of celebrated your 3rd year You know at the time the decision seemed very simple Be a father, pssh, I'm still dealing with pimples But now, I regret that decision every single day I want to wish you what could've been a happy birthday ................................................................................................ Today could've been your special day I'm sorry that we had to take it away I think of all the things that could've been All the fun, family, and closest friends I'm sorry about the decision that we made If I could go back I'd surely make that trade Because there's one thing I've always wanted to say And that's to wish you a happy 3rd birthday .............................................................................................. You would've been 14 now, first day of high school I'd advise you to be yourself, "you're already cool" You'd cringe after I say that, my opinion doesn't matter You would be to focused on climbing up the social ladder. If you were a boy, I'd hope you were interested in sports You'd probably go through a spurt that'd make me look short If you were a girl, I'd hope you'd be very active too It would've been really cool if we all could've met you You have a little sister now, I wish y'all could've met We've got a great family here that includes our new pet But I'm still torn apart inside, people have no clue Cause the only person missing in this picture would be you ...................................................................................................... Today could've been your special day I'm sorry that we had to take it away I think of all the things that could've been All the fun, family, and closest friends I'm sorry about the decision that we made If I could go back I'd surely make that trade Because there's one thing I've always wanted to say And that's to wish you a happy 14th birthday ...................................................................................................... You're 18 now, it would be time to go to college No not to party, but to learn; gain some knowledge I'm sure you would've made the entire family proud And at your graduation your grandma was probably real loud There's been some bad news that swarmed us like a typhoon Your mommy is really sick, she'll probably meet you soon Don't worry baby, your sister and I will recover I hope your excited that you get to meet your mother The tears I've shed over your mom and you have been plenty She'd often cry about you, so I'd wipe her tears gently If we could restart everything, we could've been more happy 18 years ago we should of welcomed you to our family It really wouldn't matter if you were a boy or a girl You would've had the potential to really help this world My regret for robbing you of life will never be through Hopefully you're looking down and saying, "it's ok daddy I forgive you" Your mother and I regret this decision every single day So I told her when she sees you, to wish you a happy birthday
