Put your arms
Around me child
Like when you
Bumped your shin
Then you'll know
I love you now
As I loved
You then
Tho' you may be
Trying sometimes
And I'll need you
And you're not there
I may get mad
And turn you
Away
But God knows
I still care
But you cannot
Ask for more
Than can come
From me
I am diffrent
Than you are
And one day
You'll see
So if I lose
My patience
With you
And suddenly I
Start to scream
It's only because
I just want you
To be
Everything I see
In my dreams
And I'd like to
Know that it's there
The feeling
We once had
When you know
That you
You can come
Running to me
Whenever times
Are bad
Ooh
Tho' you're
Growing older now
And I'm
Watching you grow
I know
I make you sad
Sometimes
I see your feelings
Show
But one day
I'll look around
Ooh and you
Will be
Grown
You'll be out
In the world
Such a pretty
Little girl
Tryin' to be
Be out there
On your own
Oh and I'd like to
Know that it's there
The feeling that
We once had
When you know
That you can come
Running to me
If ever times
Are bad
Child you just got
To know
That it's there
The feeling
Feeling we
Once had
When you know
That you
You can come
Running to me
Whenever times
Are bad
