All I wish for,
Is my own baby
That is mine to keep
And is not lazy

I want to hold you in my arms
As you sleep on my palms
Then gently place a kiss on your head
As I place you in your bed

But then you will cry and scream
I will come back up and give the book a read
You fallasleep
And remind me what you mean

As the days go by
You watch the sky
Then you grow up
That is time
