He didn't ask
He didn't pry
He just held the ice that covered my black eye
And when that girl
She broke my heart
We just threw that baseball back and forth 'till dark
And when I started playing guitar
And didn't have a clue
He wanted to protect me
But somehow my father knew, that

You can't cry for 'em
Live and die for 'em
You can help them find their wings but you can't fly for 'em
'Cause if they're not free to fall, than they're not free at all
And though you just can't bare the thought of letting go
You pick 'em up
You dust 'em off
And send 'em on down the road

A little kiss
On a skinned up knee
From playing soccer, riding bikes and climbing trees
When bad dreams
Filled their heads
I chased the monsters out from underneath their beds
I guess I always knew those days would end
But the hardest thing I've ever learned has been, that

You can't cry for 'em
Live and die for 'em
You can help them find their wings but you can't fly for 'em
'Cause if they're not free to fall, than they're not free at all
And though you just can't bare the thought of letting go
You pick 'em up
You dust 'em off
And you send 'em on down the road

You can't cry for 'em
Live and die for 'em
And even though it's gonna break your heart, you let 'em go
You pick 'em up
You dust 'em off
You pull them close
And you pray to God
To send 'em on down the road
Down the road
