My Baby Need

I know that you just cannot be there
Holding all the time for me
I also know my baby needs
To be with you and never leave
Until this time I thought it wrong
To want to be here all along
I still cannot completely go
To a place I fully know
That's it ok to love the day you're there
And then again to bear
The times between the need to share
The feelings that I have in this
Especially when it's you I miss
Sometimes I don't know what to do
It seems I can't hold on for you
Until next week, I'm feeling meek
It's tender loving care I seek
My baby feels so all alone
I still cannot pick up the phone
Sometimes it's feels like we will die
And then as I begin to cry
Her tears of pain rise up again
I feel it's only me to blame
I know now that just isn't true
The way life was has brought me to
Feeling this lonesome
Brings on it's own some
Difficulties I can't express
It leaves me in complete distress
And feels like you only can hear
My calling as it comes so near
I'm letting go
And falling so
Deep into your hold so rich
The wounds that it appears to stitch
Are there from old
I will be bold
And face the fear
Your arms so near
My baby cries will become clear
Together we can heal this space
With such emotional embrace
For it's power to decrease
And bring a small amount of peace
I simply need to just release
Into it here
Feel every ounce of fear
And trust that you can hold me near
