Little Burden -

Light folds you to me

I hold you in new sheets

I see her in you

I follow you into sleep

And I must

And I will

I’m still here

Just you and me, little one

I’m still here

Never let go

Calm.

There’s more time than you know

Slow.

Don’t grow just yet…

Stay right here

Stay with me

And I must

And I will

I’m still here

Just you and me, little one

I’m still here

I’ll Never let go, I swear

Still here

I am better, now

Can you, little burden, show me how?

I swear by her eyes that you won’t be alone

And I will

I will build a home

I will, with these hands, will build a home
