Testo Arlo

Arlo your heart may skip like a stone
Time is a vulture, my how you've grown
Arlo I coulda done better I suppose
You drink from the tap and you sleep in your clothes

Where is the monster that lived under your bed
You packed him a box and you erased him from your head
Sometimes I see the little boy when you fall asleep But I think we might have lost him in a game of hide and seek

And I wish you the best I go east you go west
But you're always on my mind
And I'm blessed and I'm proud I go north you go south
But I know you'll do just fine
In your own good time

Remember when the bird was hurt down by the willow tree
You held him in your shirt until you had to set him free
I would watch you make believe while everyone was bored
But Cowboys and Indians don't come here anymore

And I wish you the best I go east you go west
But you're always on my mind And I'm blessed and I'm proud I go north you go south
But I know you'll do just fine
In your own good time

Arlo I carried you right from the start
I wish you happy birthday and a place in my heart
Life is a hard way of running from the harm
But if I had it my way I'd keep you in my arms
