Child Of Mine
Mortal coil so fragile
Weightless in my arms
Such tiny life before me
My hopes, my dreams in flesh
This small life before me
Hardly hours old
My love for you completely
Now forever more
So what great plan of god
Means you are taken from me?
How could he be loving,
When you’ve no chance to be?
Would it have spoilt his world,
If you were with me now?
Would it have spoilt his world,
if I wasn’t forced to let you go?
I’ll remember you forever,
Your name echoed for all time,
I’ll never let your memory die,
Even if you were only here for a while,
I’ll never let your memory die,
oh child of mine.
