Mum Please hold me again

Please can you hold me again

Can you comfort me as you did when I was young

Will you hold me and let my tears fall as I tell you

of my fear.

Will you cuddle me once again and tell me

you will always love me like you did back then

Will you let me be the child in your arms just for

a little while

because I am afraid and frightened of what lays ahead

I need some time not to be the adult, the husband and everything else.

Please can I hear your voice, telling me it will be alright

and have a cup of tea

Please can I know you are near

Oh please can I be the child again

safely in your arms and being rocked to sleep

because I am really frightened of what lays ahead

so Please can you hold me again
