Marvin's Song

From the moment you could talk

All the people said, "Listen"

It's so funny how the things will often change

From the moment you could talk

Oh, they told you, "Please wait, boy"

It's so funny how the things will often change

But whatever they tell you

And whatever they say

I will always be your best friend

I promise come what may

Marvin, life is harder than it seems

Marvin, never grow too old to dream

Marvin, oh, I swear you'll always be my son

Every time, every moment

And whatever you have done

From the moment you could smile

Thousand times I saw you crying

It's so funny how the things will often change

From the moment, you would try

Oh, they want you as a soldier

It's so funny how the things will often change

Oh, if time could turn backwards

I would never leave again

Someday we'll be together

Always be a friend

Marvin, life is harder than it seems

Marvin, never grow too old to dream

Marvin, oh, I swear you'll always be my son

Every time and every moment

And whatever you have done

Marvin, but I swear you'll always be my son

Every time and every moment

And whatever, baby, you have done
