I watched as you took you took your first step,
I watched as you stepped up to your first day of school.
I watched as you stepped up to bat
I watched as stepped up to being a teen
I watched as you took a step to your first date
I watched as you stepped up to receive your diploma
I watched as you took a step out of my house
I watched as you stepped up to adulthood
I watched as you took a step down the aisle
I watched as you took a step to hold your first child

And now from my bed, I see you step up close to me
as I take my last step to sleep.
I have watched you take your first step,
and now this one will be my last.
