Bedtime*

I stretch up on my tippy toes
And scream and scream and scream
Do you see me
Do you hear me
Do you know me

I reach out to my fingertips
And lean and lean and lean
Can I touch you
Can I reach you
Can I feel you

All I have is what you give
I need I need I need
To you need me
Do you want me
Do you love me

It's hard to be a little child
And scream and lean and need
Will you hold me
Will you tell me
That you love me

Then all at once you walk back in
I breathe and breathe and breathe
You do hold me
You do need me
You do love me
