Elton John – Blessed Lyrics 9 years ago
I'm gonna have to give an alternate interpretation here. It's about a true love he wishes he had but hasn't met.

> Hey you, you're a child in my head
> You haven't walked yet
> Your first words have yet to be said
Our relationship is still just something I dream about. In a sense it's like an unborn child that hasn't had had its first steps or said its first words

> But I swear you'll be blessed
But I'm going to love you more than anything.

> I know you're still just a dream
> your eyes might be green
> Or the bluest that I've ever seen
> Anyway you'll be blessed
At this point, you're just something I dream about. I don't even know what you look like yet.

The chorus just reinforces that he's gonna love her and give her the best of whatever he can give her

> I need you before I'm too old
> To have and to hold
From wedding vows obviously, but he wants to spend lots of time with her, and in order to raise children with her, he needs to be with her while he's still young enough to raise the child.

> To walk with you and watch you grow
> And know that you're blessed
He wants to walk by her side and watch her grow old (as he does)
