I understand, really I do
You were once me and now I am you; Circumstances differ, they always do
But if I truly know your heart, you know mine too
I can take my imagination for a walk in your shoes
To better understand what it was like to be you
Your hand has been empty for quite some time
I can relate, so was mine
Now I have four precious little hands
Fighting for a place beside me
Reaching in confidence
Just for the chance to be more like me
Don’t worry; they’ll reach for yours too
For they can see me when they look up at you
Love those little hands just like you’ve always wanted
Pay attention and you will see
That little girl is within them, within you, within me
Moments go by, second by second
Give it your all
Love that precious little girl
She has always deserved it
