Sometimes I'd like to keep you
Just the way you are now
You seem to smile so easily
Life to you is fun and free
And watching you play together
Everything's how it should be
I know one day you'll be apart
I worry it will break your hearts
But now you're here with me
Forget how it might be
Let's not fear the things that we can't see
Sometimes I'd like to hug you
And keep you all to myself
I know that you're not really mine
Life flies by there's not much time
To tell you I really love you
Even on days when I cry
I love you for eternity
So please be who you want to be
And now you're here with me
Forget how it might be
Let's not fear the things that we can't see
Sometimes I'd like to show you
The way that I used to be
I used to smile so easily
Life to me was fun and free
And watching you slowly realise
The world isn't how it should be
Others' pain is hard to take
I worry that your hearts' will break
But now you're here with me
Forget how it might be
Let's not fear the things that we can't see
Now you're here with me
Forget how it might be
Let's not fear the things that we can't see
