May

Now, may and i were two children just swimming in a pool
We'd ride on rockets, swingsets and we tried to touch the moon
And i will never forget the first time she touched my hand
I knew this could be the one who would make me an honest man

She was like the way she was
She was like the way she was

Now, we got older faster than we ever could have seen
Lights went down on graduation then on a wedding ring
We bought our first house and had a baby on the way
But during birth, i got my daughter
Jesus took away my may

And i didn't know how to say what i felt
No, i didn't know how to say what it felt like

She was just like she was
When you looked into her eyes you'd come undone
She was just like she was
She could love you on your worst day
And didn't care about the mistakes
She was like she was

Now, baby girls love daddy most
But they need a mother's care
I tried my best to raise her right
I just couldn't braid her hair
One day she got old enough to have her wedding day
But as i walked her down the aisle
All i could see was my may

And i didn't know how to say what i felt
No, i didn't know how to say what it felt like

She was just like she was
When you looked into her eyes you'd see the sun
She was just like she was
She could love you on your worst day
And didn't care about the mistakes
She was like she was

But may, i hope you can see what i see
'cause when they talk about our baby girl they think of you
And they say to me

She's just like she was
When i looked into her eyes i'd see the sun
She was just like she was
She could love you on your worst day
And doesn't care about the mistakes
She was like she was

She was just like she was
When i looked into her eyes i'd come undone
She was just like she was
And i cannot feel my heart beat
Without the thought of her inside me
She was like she was

mayo

Ahora, May y yo éramos dos niños nadando en una piscina
Montábamos en cohetes, columpios y tratamos de tocar la luna
Y nunca olvidaré la primera vez que me tocó la mano
Sabía que este podría ser el que me convertiría en un hombre honesto

Ella era como era
Ella era como era

Ahora, envejecemos más rápido de lo que podríamos haber visto
Las luces se apagaron en la graduación y luego en un anillo de bodas
Compramos nuestra primera casa y tuvimos un bebé en camino
Pero durante el nacimiento, tengo a mi hija
Jesús me quitó mi mayo

Y no sabía cómo decir lo que sentí
No, no sabía cómo decir lo que se sentía

Ella era igual que era
Cuando le mirabas a los ojos, te deshiciste
Ella era igual que era
Podría amarte en tu peor día
Y no se preocupaba por los errores
Ella era como era

Ahora, las niñas adoran más a papá
Pero necesitan el cuidado de una madre
Intenté mi mejor esfuerzo para criarla bien
No podía trenzarle el pelo
Un día se hizo lo suficientemente mayor como para tener el día de su boda
Pero mientras la acompañaba por el pasillo
Todo lo que pude ver era mi mayo

Y no sabía cómo decir lo que sentí
No, no sabía cómo decir lo que se sentía

Ella era igual que era
Cuando le mirabas a los ojos, veías el sol
Ella era igual que era
Podría amarte en tu peor día
Y no se preocupaba por los errores
Ella era como era

Pero puede, espero que puedas ver lo que yo veo
Porque cuando hablan de nuestra niña piensan en ti
Y me dicen

Ella es igual que era
Cuando le miré a los ojos veía el sol
Ella era igual que era
Podría amarte en tu peor día
Y no le importan los errores
Ella era como era

Ella era igual que era
Cuando le miré a los ojos me deshice
Ella era igual que era
Y no puedo sentir mi corazón latir
Sin pensar en ella dentro de mí
Ella era como era
