I Shall Be Content |
Every tick of the clock you learn something new, Each minute that passes, I see something different you do, You�re growing so fast I feel a pain of fear, For I know the time is not far when I will lose you dear. Though I hold you close and rock you to and fro, I think of the time you will tell me �Mom I Love him so.� I think of the day you will kiss me good-bye, I think of that fateful day with a tear in my eye. Please dear forgive me for speaking this strange way, For like all Mothers I shall be content with your short stay, When you leave to marry take my love along, And in return give a grandchild to fill my heart with song. |
