How can I bear this
The pain that I feel
You are so helpless
Lying there so sick
How can I help you
Other than to try
The only thing I know
I can soothe you
My dear child
Just as I soothe your mother
My heart is breaking
My dear child
To watch you struggle
With all those tubes
I tell your mother that
Everything is going to be okay
And I know that it will be
Somehow you will laugh
Somehow you will play again
I love you dearly my child
Seeing you so sick breaks my spirit
What I would give to make you well
Ah but I am helpless and heartbroken
My dear dear child
