Small bright eyes staring at me.
Deep and blue, unfortunately
I can't take you home tonight.
Hold my finger with your hand.
Looking up you understand.
Run back to your mother's side.

Daddy, let's go play outside.
Will you stand the test of time?
Or will this weight fall down on us?
I don't want to live like this,
Broken by another kiss.
Only we can build up trust.

And I wonder why such a thing could happen this way.
And I will always try to let the past fade away.
And I wonder why such a thing could happen this way.
And I will always try to build a brighter day...

My small feet can barely walk,
And you know when I start to talk,
I'll be sure to say..."I love you."
Hold me as I fall towards you
Underneath the blanket blue.
Feed me love and open arms.

O God I love to hold you close,
Hear your breath, feel your pulse.
Take you through this angry world.
Please jump up on my back again,
Laugh out loud. I love to spend
Hours pass and days will never be the same.

And I wonder why you ran away.
