You may never know how much I love you
But love you I do
You are my candle in a dark night
Leading the way with your smile so bright

I try my best at everything
Because I know your gaze I’m always carrying
Letting you down is what I fear the most
I always want us to be this close

Watching you grow is such a great pleasure
You are my favorite and most valuable treasure
With eyes so beautiful and wide
Through this wondrous world I will be your guide

I want to prevent all things wicked from hurting you, my precious
To think that something harmful might befall you leaves my breathless
So I will go on worrying over and loving you
With a love that is both strong and true
