From the recording Jump In Nathaniel
Lyrics
I WANTED YOU HERE FOR SO LONG A TIME
IT WAS A JOY WHEN YOU CAME TO THIS LIFE
MY HOPE OF YOU AND WHO YOU WILL BE
HAS ALREADY GONE FAR BEYOND MY DREAMS
JUMP IN NATHANIEL LET’S GO FOR A DRIVE
WE’RE ON THE RIDE OF A LIFETIME
KNOW THAT YOU BELONG AND BE GLAD THAT YOU ARE
THE LOVE OF GENERATIONS HAS PUT YOU HERE NOW
SEE AS YOU LOOK OUT AT ALL THE WORK OF MAN
THE SACRIFICE OF AGES PUT THIS IN YOUR HAND
HERE WITH YOUR REASON DON’T SECOND GUESS YOU’RE ROLE
OR THE MIND YOU BROUGHT YOUR STORY WILL BE TOLD
JUMP IN NATHANIEL LET’S GO FOR A DRIVE
WE’RE ON THE RIDE OF A LIFETIME
COME ON NATHANIEL I’VE WAITED HERE SO LONG
SO GLAD YOU CAME COME ALONG
I HOPE THAT YOU WON’T FALL DOWN AS MUCH AS I
YOUR INCLINATIONS ARE ONE STEP BEYOND MINE
YOU WON’T KNOW ME YOUNG KNOW ME AT MY HEART
AND SEEK A THOUGHT OF ME LONG AFTER WE’RE APART
I WILL EASE THOSE LESSONS AS FATHER’S OFTEN DO
AS SONS ALWAYS WILL YOU’LL STUMBLE ON A FEW
JUMP IN NATHANIEL LET’S GO FOR A DRIVE
YOU’RE ON THE RIDE OF A LIFETIME
COME ON NATHANIEL I’VE WAITED HERE SO LONG
SO GLAD YOU CAME COME ALONG
