When I was a baby, you held me close.
Sometimes I never wanted you to let me go.
When I was sick, you'd stay up all night,
And still take care of me by morning's light.
You always knew how to show me you cared,
And always forgave me, no matter what trouble I dared.
I grew up as children always do.
I learned to be strong by watching you.
But I grew wings and flew away,
Knowing we'll be reunited again one day.
Here is my picture for you to hold dear
So though we're apart, I'll always be near.
