Tailwind lyrics

I watched you grow older I watched you struggle to find your own feet and stand I measured your footsteps, starts, and stutters as you learned to be your own man Now I know you'll be happy And I know that you're scared But I know you'll be ready When you come back I'll be here I know she beckons this world like a lover with cities of promise and hope But be careful boy they say she's a monster whose lies swallow grown men whole Now I know that you're ready Cause I know you'll be strong And I know you'll be happy When you come back I'll be gone Well I know that you're ready And I know that you're strong And I know that you're happy When you come back I'll be gone
