| Cup Your Hands Gently |
| Careful now, cup your hands gently for within them you hold my heart see it's fragile bloom crush not the silken petals be aware of the treasure you hold |
| Softly now, speak only words of love for my heart has tender ears hear it's soulful song quiet not the sweet melody be still while my ballad is told |
| Protect now, feel the dream that is me for my wings are made of wishes watch as they spread wide quench not their thirst for flight be glad that I see the horizon |
| Promise now feed my heart wisdom for I am eager to learn of life smile as you let me fly free frown not upon my mistakes be proud of your creation |
