Too young

Her eyes so innocent so pure so clean

In her mothers eyes her baby was a queen

The child so soft so sweet and so new

Her mothers love was the only thing she knew

Toddling around she would make a mess

Her mother so exhausted she just had to rest

At night her child asleep she would sit by her bed

Humming softly these are the words she said

Always know that my heart is yours

You are my child my love my only hope

She was now in school for the very first day

Be safe I love you her mother would say

When she came home tears brimmed her eyes

I made no friends I was to shy

Her mother took her into her arms and sung

Always know that my heart is yours

You are my child my love my only hope

Now she cares what others think

Sometimes she wishes she could just shrink

But her mother would love her until the end

To her mother her daughter is her best friend

Always know that my heart is yours

You are my child my love my only hope

She gets a call on a dark cold night

That fills her heart with so much fright

Alone with tears she drives back home

The house so dark sitting all alone

A single teardrips down her cheek

As she holds her mothers hand So week

Her mother's voice was soft and slow

But the words she spoke the child already knew

Always know that my heart is yours

You are my child my love my only hope
