The Highwomen - My Only Child lyrics
[The Highwomen - My Only Child lyrics]
I know you wish you had a brother who had
Blue eyes just like you i know you wish
You had a sister you could
Tell your secrets to maybe we'll miss
Having four sets of china on the table
But I guarantee you this
You mean more to me than branches to a maple
Pink painted walls your face in my locket
Your daddy and me your tiny back pocket
Mama's first love last of my kind
You'll always be my only child
Well I can't let go
Of watercolor memories that you made me
And I'm holding on
To the innocence of tea parties and daydreams
Pink painted walls your face in my locket
Your daddy and me your tiny back pocket
Mama's first love last of my kind
You'll always be my only child
Someday your wish
Will come true when your first baby's born
And you'll cherish every kiss
And wonder how you could love something more
Pink painted walls your face in my locket
Your daddy and me your tiny back pocket
Mama's first love the last of my kind
You'll always be my only child (Child)
My only child (My only child)
My only child (Child)
My only child (My only child)
I know you wish you had a brother who had
Blue eyes just like you
Blue eyes just like you i know you wish
You had a sister you could
Tell your secrets to maybe we'll miss
Having four sets of china on the table
But I guarantee you this
You mean more to me than branches to a maple
Pink painted walls your face in my locket
Your daddy and me your tiny back pocket
Mama's first love last of my kind
You'll always be my only child
Well I can't let go
Of watercolor memories that you made me
And I'm holding on
To the innocence of tea parties and daydreams
Pink painted walls your face in my locket
Your daddy and me your tiny back pocket
Mama's first love last of my kind
You'll always be my only child
Someday your wish
Will come true when your first baby's born
And you'll cherish every kiss
And wonder how you could love something more
Pink painted walls your face in my locket
Your daddy and me your tiny back pocket
Mama's first love the last of my kind
You'll always be my only child (Child)
My only child (My only child)
My only child (Child)
My only child (My only child)
I know you wish you had a brother who had
Blue eyes just like you
