With
You All The While
My
baby daughter mentioned the other day - - though she’s not a baby any more--
How much she wished
that I were near; afraid of what’s in store
My heart stuck in my
throat, while in my mind the thoughts revolved
Of all the things she
means to me and of problems left unsolved
What could I now say
to her to alleviate her fears
Turn the tide of deep
despair and dry my Baby’s tears
It was then my mind
came on an answer of a sort
I could show how I was
there strengthening this tiny fort
Listen, my dear loving
one, with the half of me inside
As you wander through
a starlit night with eyes so open wide
And when you see the
galaxy in time beyond my time
Think of me for I’ll
be there the part of you inside
If you are blessed with
a little one, you’ll know to what I speak
A part of you will go
there to as you cup such tiny feet
And in your travels
to distant lands at the wonders you will see
Don’t forget who stoked
the flame and for a moment think of me
I’m never far, trust
this thing, I’m with you all the time
Use my love as a shield
today and let the daylight shine
Pause awhile in your
mad rush, for the butterfly give a smile
“Cause I’ll be smiling
right along, I’ve been with you all the while
