Oh my baby, little one.
The hardest thing I do is hold you tight. Then let you go, and walk away from you.
But even when I'm far away,
this love I have will stay
and wrap itself around you
every minute of the day.
So blow a kiss and wave goodbye,
my baby, don't you cry.
This love is always with you,
like the sun is with the sky.
It sits upon your shoulder
while you sing a happy song.
Clap your hands and tap your toes-
this love will sing along.
It nestles in your pocket
and makes itself so small
that when you're busy playing
you won't notice it at all.
But still this love is with you,
like the leaves are with the trees,
like the sand is with the sandbox,
like the kite is with the breeze.
It slips inside your lunch box,
and underneath your cap.
When your teacher reads a storybook,
it settles on your lap.
And when it's time to take a nap -
Shh, don't make a peep.
This love will curl up close to you
and keep watch while you sleep.
It snuggles on your pillow
and later on your sleeve.
Now stretch your fingers,
rub your eyes,
this love will never leave.
It stays beside you always,
through everything you do.
And you might be surprised to know.
this love is with me too.
It nestles in my collar,
while I get my day's work done.
I hear it wisper in my ear,
my baby, little one.
It might hide inside my desk drawer
or slip inside my shoe,
but still, it's always with me -
It stays the whole day through.
It curls around my coffee cup
and perches on my chair,
It doesn't matter where I go,
this love is everywhere.
Oh, my baby little one,
the sweetest thing I do
is sweep you up and hold you tight
and come back home to you.
