It’s funny how I had the greatest things so near
But it took me leaving to be able to see it clear
It was like I never knew I had it
So I just took them for granite
Like they’re only doing what they’re supposed to
Like they’re only doing these things because they have to
But they never did, they just did it because the wanted
They’ve been doing these things since I was a kid
Since I was a baby, since I was first born
But I never thanked them so my heart is torn
I just want to tell you guys you are the best
And I’m so glad I have you over all the rest
You gave me all you had to offer and so much more
And I don’t know what you guys did it for
I didn’t deserve it, I was so selfish
Yet you guys were always so selfless
Killing yourself with all this work
You never complained even though I was always such a jerk
Acting like I just wanted to get away
And I won't regret anything more than somethings I did say
You guys gave me everything, but I acted like it wasn’t enough
But you guys were killing yourselves for me, it must have been tough
I just hope that I can be half of what you guys were for me
Because you guys are the only thing that I want to be
My heart is overflowing with love
And I am so thankful God sent you both from above
You have always been here when I needed you most
If I did anything slightly good you were always there to boast
I know I always acted like I was embarrassed
But now that it’s over I sort of miss it
All of the stories of when I was a kid
How we went into that restaurant and I ran and hid
You know which one I’m talking about dad
I think it was that one in San Fran
And mom how you always tried to act so tough
But all I had to do was hug you and that was enough
And it’s like you forgot you were even mad
Oh, how I miss the childhood I had
So when you guys are old and can hardly walk
You can move right in with me, there will always be a spot
So thank you guys for just being who you are
You will always be my guardian angels and my northern star
