I'll Hold Your Hand My Darling

I'll hold your hand my Darling. Planes aren't actually that scary.
It's just the noise that's loud. There's nothing there to worry.
I'll hold your hand my Darling. Hold it tightly in my hand,
I won't let you fall, step by step, we'll walk together till the end.
You're afraid of the water, because it goes 'glug glug glug'?
Look, it's just because the water is draining from the bathtub.
Oh! You've made a sandwich? A delicious, yummy sandwich?
I imagine that I've eaten it up, and now it's all finished.
You asked me to smell the flowers, (they're plastic!) I obliged and pretend to sniff.
Hey Mommy, you didn't say 'ahchoo', so I sneezed and sneezed and sneezed.
Filled with such imagination, and funny with the things you say.
You bring me such great joy and delight in each and every day!
I will hold your hand, I'll hold it tight, I'll guide you as you grow
Into an independant young woman, till then will I let go.
