If I Didn't Have You To Wake Up To-Mary Chapin Carpenter

What would I do if I didn't have you To wake up to each day Who'd take my troubles and put them in bubbles And make them burst away And where would I find the innocence That tells me it's okay If I didn't have you to wake up to each day Your father's going to be a little bit jealous When the boys come around to call And when you don't come home on time He'll be pacing up and down the hall But that's just a part of growing up What could I do anyway If I didn't have you to wake up to each day Should I be strict, should I be mean Should I teach you discipline The times say yes, but I say no You'll learn it from within I know that every mother thinks her child Is the prettiest one But you've got a smile that can't be refused It even brightens up the sun I wish I could make time stand still and Just keep lookin' at you But that's something even Old Methuselah wasn't able to do I hope you come around to see me When I'm feeble, old and gray Oh, what would I do If I didn't have you to wake up to each day Oh, what would I do If I didn't have you to wake up to each day
