Whole World Lyrics by Cooper Alan
I spent my twenties
Pedal down chasing
Bright lights, dollar signs, every night thinking I’d
Climb til I made it
But a trophy on the mantle and some honey in your cup
Don’t even hold a candle to the feeling that comes
When that doc says dad and he’s talking to you and
Just like that your dreams come true
I’ve got the whole world in my hands
She don’t know how she changed this man
She’s got my heart and I don’t want it back
I know this part goes by too fast
I’ll hold on long as I can
While I’ve got the whole world in my hands
It’s hard to believe it
But soon I know
It’ll be riding bikes, story time, say goodnight
Daddy, I love you the most
Yeah, one day I’ll be her daddy and the next I’ll be dad
I’ll be thinking about now, wishing I could go back
But you can’t hit the breaks, can’t slow down the years
So I won’t miss a moment like this one here
I’ve got the whole world in my hands
She don’t know how she changed this man
She’s got my heart and I don’t want it back
I know this part goes by too fast
I’ll hold on long as I can
While I’ve got the whole world in my hands
Yeah, I know one day that there’s gonna be some other man
Who will change her last name, be her new superman
And I’ll give her away and try not to cry
But for one last dance, one last time
I’ve got the whole world in my hands
She don’t know how she changed this man
She’s got my heart and I don’t want it back
I know this part goes by too fast
I’ll hold on long as I can
While I’ve got the whole world in my hands
