FOR MY SON, VEGA...

                          He's my best friend, he's only 4 years old.
                              I'd die for that little man, truth be told.
                        He's my heart, he's my soul. I'd say he's my life.
                                    The only ones I love as much,
                                    are my daughter's and my wife.

                                      He's always by my side,
                                  when I awake, and when I sleep.
                              He tries so hard to fill daddy's shoes,
                                    with those itty, bitty feet.

                            He does a hell a job, that I must admit.
                          I'll always remember the day he was born,
                                  for it's a joy I'll never forget.
                                  He's my pride, he's my joy.
                              His name is Vega, and he's my boy.

                            Well he's not a boy, he's my little man.
                              He can always make daddy smile,
                                        time and time again.

                    When you become older, we might fuss and fight.
              But then I'll remember how I feel, at this time, on this night.

              Remember I'll always love you, as much as a daddy can.
                            From your times as an innocent child,
                                to your times as a wandering man.

                    I'll always have your back, I'll be right by your side.
                          For when you have your first heartbreak,
                            and when you say I do, to your bride.

                    Then I'll watch my little boy, grow big into a man.
                                Then I'll know I raised my son,
                                to be the best daddy he can.....
