Caring love cold as a shower,
never before and never after,
shall one as you love me again.
You cradle me at youth,
protect me as I mature,
scold me in contempt and yet…
…always in love
Was not for you… I would not care,
was not for you… I would not live,
was not for you… I would not love.
Hold me as I go into the world,
do not protect me… only guide me,
for I am man and woman’s child, bold and foolish…
…yet as always it shall be – unknowing.
Forsake me not… for with me pride was born,
good and evil I can do…that all mankind can do,
but that what I’ve been taught not all mankind can do – care!!
