Regina Spektor - Dear Theodosia lyrics

[Verse 1: 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 [Pre-Chorus: Regina Spektor & Ben Folds] 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 pa** it on to you, we’ll give the world to you [Chorus: Regina Spektor] And you’ll blow us all away… Someday, someday Yeah, you’ll blow us all away Someday, someday [Bridge: Ben Folds, Regina Spektor, together] 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… [Pre-Chorus: Regina Spektor, Ben Folds] 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 pa** it on to you (on to you) We’ll give the world to you (world to you) [Outro: Regina Spektor] And you’ll blow us all away… Someday, someday Yeah, you’ll blow us all away Someday, someday
