The Mess

Lyrics

Small hand holding mine Small eyes looking up at me I see so much trust; I hope I deserve it I didn't have to earn it Small nose is crusty again Our carpet is covered in pen I see your creations on the fridge and the wall And I love them all, every one, every one Don't clear up the mess just yet It still feels like we've just met Right now I can say you're mine But I know one day I'll have to let you go There's stickers in my pajamas There's coco pocks (sic) inside my bed Swinging on the cupboard door 'till it breaks off Always learning, every day, every day There's pieces and bits on the chair and the floor And this wooden railway has been here before The dolls are all catching the train to the see While the mouse café's serving hot cups of tea Bear and giraffe are still sat in their den We have to be quiet as they're sleeping again Now let's read a story with Kanga and Roo If I ask you nicely can I play too? Don't grow up too soon, too fast Let your childhood linger, last For right now I can say you're mine But I pray every day you'll find someone who loves you as much as I do
