I've been thinking about a way that I can thank you
I guess that's the way I've always been
When you picked me up I was so tired
You showed me how to love again
I'm a child holding on to a love that feels so right
But I'm old enough to know I gotta hold on tight
So baby
Would you be my family
Would you tie the not
Will you cut my hair when it's getting too long
I wanna know you love me
Even when I'm ugly
Won't you understand me baby
Won't you be my family
I've been thinking about the way a season changes
From a cold winter night to a summer day
Year after year like turning pages
We can live our lives together this way
No sense in holding back and telling myself a lie
It's one of nature's gifts I don't need a reason why
So baby
Would you be my family
Would you tie the not
Will you cut my hair when it's getting too long
I wanna know you love me
Even when I'm ugly
Won't you understand me baby
Won't you be my family
Won't you be family for a while
As long as you can stand
I can't wait to see your pretty smile
When I offer my hand
So baby
Would you be my family
Would you tie the not
Will you cut my hair when it's getting too long
I wanna know you love me
Even when I'm ugly
Won't you understand me baby
Won't you be my family
