Do you remember
Not so long ago
When I could just pick you up
And warm your soul
We'd sit and talk about the difference between
The world of bad and good
And I was doing the best I could
Bedtime stories
Read you off to sleep
Wishing you all my love
And sweet, sweet dreams
I'd wait until you were closing your eyes
Just because I thought I should
And I'd wonder while I watched you breathe
What this crazy world had up its sleeve
I was doing the best I could
