[Verse 2]
I loved seeing you grow; you were ambitious at everything you did.
You had heart and compassion for others, is something you always spread.
Things were not always easy, but somehow you always pulled through. 
Your heart was gold, A unsung treasure, that was always tried and true
I always loved your attitude when you helped me build
You did not squabble much, like your little brothers did

[chorus]
I will always plead with you, no matter if you push me away
My prayer will always be that you, return to the faith that made your way
I know you want acceptance, 
I do too
My faith I will never compromise,
But this is what I will do
I need you to know this and never forget
I will always love you until the day, my sun has set.

[Verse 3]
It was fun to do the things outdoors, camping and fishing all day long. 
I regret that I did not do more with you, before you were suddenly gone.
I know you are accomplishing a lot at work and are doing many grand things
You take your leadership to heart, doing all that your creativeness brings.
It makes me sad. We are not close. In fact, we’re to far away.
We got lost along the narrow trail, now all I can do is pray

[Outro]
I will always love you
I know you want acceptance, 
I do too
But this is what I will do
I need you to know this and never forget
I will always love you, until the day, my sun has set.

[Verse 1] You were the first born in my family, you had the attention of us all It was you that changed the course of my story, made me feel so tall I have always been amazed that you were my very own. This is true. You will always be my first born, who rocked my world, when I first held you You were always compliant, going to bed without a fuss You loved your trains and dinosaurs, special for all of us.
