MY CHILD NOW THAT YOU ARE OLDER
I HAVE SOME QUESTIONS TO ASK YOU
DO YOU REMEMBER WHEN WE WERE A FAMILY
AND WHEN I TOOK YOU TO THE ZOO

DO YOU REMEMBER HOW
I WOULD TIE YOUR SHOES
DO YOU REMEMBER
BUTTON YOUR COAT TO KEEP YOU WARM

I REMEMBER YOU WOULD HUGE ME TIGHT
WHEN AT HOME AFTER I WORKED ALL DAY
YOU WOULD HELP ME TAKE OFF MY SHOES
THEN WE WOULD LAY ON THE FLOOR AND PLAY

DO YOU REMEMBER HOW YOU USED TO WALK ON MY BACK
HOW I WOULD WIGGLE TO MAKE YOU FALL
YOU WOULD HIT THE FLOOR AND YOU WOULD LAUGH
THEN GET UP AND MORE WAS YOUR CALL

DO YOU REMEMBER
HOW MUCH I LOVE THE FAMILY
DO YOU REMEMBER
HOW MUCH IT HEART FOR US TO BE APART

I REMEMBER THE LAST DAY I SPENT WITH YOU
YOU WERE SO YOUNG DID YOU UNDERSTAND THE TEARS
CAN YOU FORGIVE ME FOR TAKING YOUR LOVE
AND THEN NOT BEING THERE THROUGH ALL THOSE YEARS

MY CHILD NOW THAT YOU ARE OLDER
DO YOU UNDERSTAND, WHAT I'M TRYING TO SAY
I HAVE WANTED TO BE THERE WITH YOU
YOU HAVE NEVER LEFT MY HEART
I HAVE ALWAYS MISS YOU

DO YOU REMEMBER
HOW I WOULD TIE YOUR SHOES
DO YOU REMEMBER
I BUTTON YOUR COAT TO KEEP YOU WARM

DO YOU REMEMBER
HOW MUCH I LOVE THE FAMILY
DO YOU REMEMBER
HOW MUCH IT HEART FOR US TO BE APART
