I’ll always hold you close.
To soothe your aching gums, to soothe my aching heart from seeing you in such pain.
I’ll always hold you close.
When days are hard and scary I’ll wrap you in my arms until you feel nothing but joy.
I’ll always hold you close.
When the stroller just won’t do and up here, next to me, you see the most exciting perspective of the world ahead.
I’ll always hold you close.
Before busy, before dinner, before something else or someone else. No matter what I’ll always see you and how important you are.
I’ll always hold you close.
Because my arms can be the highest airplane and the fastest horse and I will do whatever it takes to see you smile.
I’ll always hold you close.
Regardless if it’s 2am or 2pm know that if you need me I’ll be there.
I’ll always hold you close.
Because inside of me you grew for 9 months and in my arms you find the security you need. It might not be the same but as you rest on my chest and hear my heart beat your soul remembers that this is where you belong.
I’ll always hold you close.
Not just for you but for me, because without you my arms feel empty, without your soft breath on my chest I feel a void, without your sweet smell I feel lost.
I’ll always hold you close my baby. Until the day my arms no longer have the strength, I’ll always hold you close.
