Description
I wrote this for my youngest daughter, when her first child was born. It came round again for her second. And her older sister’s firstborn, just a few months ago.

Lyrics
You may be short
You may be tall
You may be kind and thoughtful
Or drive me up the wall
I haven’t a clue
Just that look in your eyes
But I feel your fingers clutching
And I’m torn
Terrified
You”ll feel joy
You’ll feel pain
There is nothing that I can ever do
To take that away
You have the future
I have the past
But I share with you this precious present
Knowing
It won’t last
When it rains
When it burns
Remember me
I gave you birth
I am the arm that armours you
I am the hand that pulls you through
Always a part of you
See how you stumble
See how you fly
When you’re calling out for comfort
I will reply
All down the years
The rich and the lean
I will be there behind you
Watching and unseen
When it rains
When it burns
Remember me
I gave you birth
I am the arm that armours you
I am the hand that pulls you through
Always a part of you
