When I was younger
I seem to remember
Holding a finger while walking to
Mother standing
By ten I could tell her
"I'll love you forever
And I'll tread on the stars just to be with you
Notwithstanding"
When staring into her naked face
Yes, I wished my eyes would never stray
She said why cry little baby
Why cry yeh yeh
Why cry pretty baby
Wipe your eyes yeh yeh
Now I am older
I don't sit on her shoulder
To gaze over worlds that are lower to
The higher standing
Instead I'm staring into your ageless face
Yes, and I wish my eyes will never stray
I seem to remember

Why cry yeh yeh
Why cry pretty baby
Wipe your eyes yeh yeh
Now I am older
I don't sit on her shoulder
To gaze over worlds that are lower to
The higher standing
Instead I'm staring into your ageless face
Yes, and I wish my eyes will never stray
