When all ambitions fade and thoughts despair
When all the world is grey and full of cloud
I hold your hand remembering I care
And I am once again happy and proud.
I hold the little hands that shrink in mine
I lift the little bodies in my arms
I feel something unearthly and divine
And everything inside me gently calms.
I speak to them and try hard just to play
I try hard to forget the adult me
I build a world of Lego for a day
And turn the bathtub into open sea.
I want to be a child again for you
And see the world as if all things were new.
