plenty of time to turn out the light,
i want to keep this feeling inside, for a little more,
it must be a daddy's pride and joy, a little baby boy,
is lying in my arms here tonight;
tears in my eyes when i saw you being born,
so much emotion, words cannot form, so i'll let it be,
only to say it's you and me, for eternity,
i wish you a wonderful life,
and i'm only, i'm only, i'm only,
just a word away;
i will be near whenever you call,
pick you up whenever you fall,
'till the day will come, but you're not alone,
remember that i will be here,
and i'm only, i'm only, i'm only,
just a word away;
your sister rosanna's fast asleep, so it's time for me,
to whisper i love you, goodnight,
and i'm only, i'm only, i'm only,
just a word away, just a word away...
