I hope you spend your days

writing verses on your page.
May your life be a Walden Pond swim.

Taking showers in the cold

and your glasses filled to their brim.

And I hope you treat your heart

real nice and real smart.
May your life be a Walden Pond swim.

Can't be worthless seein' stars,

buying rocky-road for me and him.

Stay in that water and
keep where you're feeling fine but

I'm just the daughter of a man who lives on oak and wine and I
D
swim like my father

and remember hard days drivin' miles across county lines.

I hope you realize
Em
why the clouds are always crying.
May your life be a Walden Pond dive.

Shaking flowers at the ground

while you live the life you did at five.

And I hope it's testified

for you the best had been denied.
May your life be a Walden Pond swim.

May you find your love tonight

and the times you have are never grim.
