Lyrics
Oh my Child mon petit
though small you are
can you know the love that swells in me?
oh my treasure how can you see?
how can i help you know it before I leave?
For trapped within this body,
a cruel, unyielding sickness
I wish that I could be free
but strength is fleeting
and death stands next to me!
If I could live to see you run
and play with other children
If I could watch you grow
to be the man that you can be
that you will be!
I would turn this cancer into a memory!
you'd see.
You would wake to find
this nightmare was a dream
a dream from which you could wake
But though I should die
yet you shall live
to see days when the earth
in peace doth lie
I will be there with wings to fly
I will find you beneath that azure sky!
