Just the other day
you were still a child
I can't believe my eyes
how quickly you've grown in size
oh yeh...
I can't believe it's true
no I can't believe it's you
for just the other day
you were still a child

Boy in the cradle - the man in front of me
boy in the cradle - the man in front of me
oh oh ... oh oh
I'm getting old
oh oh ... oh oh
boy in the cradle

Feels like yesterday
I helped you along your way
I showed you how to walk
I taught you how to talk
oh yeh...

I can't believe it's true
no I can't believe it's you
for just the other day
you were still a child

Boy in the cradle - the man in front of me
boy in the cradle - the man in front of me
oh oh ... oh oh
I'm getting old
oh oh ... oh oh
boy in the cradle

Just the other day
you were still a child
I can't believe it's true
I can't believe it's you
