Lego toys on the counters Dolls stuffed in a bag All the wintermitts on the radiators Are some of the things that I love Boots and boots and boots Are stacked on wet newspapers There're puddles to avoid And the chorus from the kitchen sings "I love you" Toilet paper tubes in every room He will use for constructions Drawings of Charlotte when she was a baby
In my belly they were safe They used to catch me crying I should not have cried that much But then they would console me They have such a gentle touch Would bring me a kleenex and tell me Everything was okay Now I know it will be When I go away They go on without me But it never is the same And it makes my heart ache
