When you were born my darling,
I held you close to me,
I loved so my darling,
I said youre a gift from the heavens my darling,
I took you always with me,
From school to camp to work,
I loved so my darling,
You always cuddled up in my arms,
And fell in to a dream filled sleep,
I didnt know it would be the last time I held you,
As you fell in to a sleep,
A sleep deeper than any other sleep,
A sleep you would not wake up from,
I held you so close to me in that sleep,
and I cried,
and I cried,
and I cried,
I loved so my darling,
And I forever more will love you,
Till the end of the earth,
And longer
