Dear Theodosia Lyrics - Regina Spektor

Dear Theodosia, what to say to you? 

You have my eyes. You have your mother's name 

When you came into the world, you cried and it broke my heart 

I'm dedicating every day to you 

Domestic life was never quite my style 

When you smile 

You knock me out, I fall apart 

And I thought I was so smart 

You will come of age with our young nation 

We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you 

If we lay a strong enough foundation 

We'll pass it on to you, we'll give the world to you

And you'll blow us all away... 

Someday, someday 

Yeah, you'll blow us all away 

Someday, someday 

My father wasn't around 

My father wasn't around 

I swear that I'll be around for you 

I'll do whatever it takes 

I'll make a million mistakes 

I'll make the world safe and sound for you... 

We'll come of age with our young nation 

We'll bleed and fight for you, we'll make it right for you 

If we lay a strong enough foundation 

We'll pass it on to you (on to you) 

We'll give the world to you (world to you)
