Walks in the park by evening,
picking roses by the hedge,
on my shoulders you pitched,
my little girl, my own flower

I’d tuck you in bed, tell tales!
to your little ears, I was music
I’d rock you, lullabies I’d sing
I was your army, your Jericho

If only seasons hadn’t changed,
If only time hadn’t set curves,
you’d still be little and nimble
and you’d still be mine, not he’s
