i can't fight your dragons anymore
they no longer live behind your closet door
my magic's lost its power to ease your mind
but if i could i'd slay them child of mine
what i wouldn't give for just one day
when holding you was all it took to wipe those tears away
remember all the days we've left behind
and hold them in your heart, sweet child of mine
it fills me like a river fills the sea
holds me in its sway and sets me free
it reaches far beyond all tide and time
this love i have for you sweet child of mine
this love i have for you sweet child of mine
they no longer live behind your closet door
my magic's lost its power to ease your mind
but if i could i'd slay them child of mine
what i wouldn't give for just one day
when holding you was all it took to wipe those tears away
remember all the days we've left behind
and hold them in your heart, sweet child of mine
it fills me like a river fills the sea
holds me in its sway and sets me free
it reaches far beyond all tide and time
this love i have for you sweet child of mine
this love i have for you sweet child of mine
