Darling Dear 

There's holes in my shoes and there's a light inside of you

I can't quite recognize

Cracks in the sidewalk, children swimming in the leaves

I can't quite recognize

Oh, ya know, let's lay one low in the alley where we used to meet

Oh, ya know, let's take it slow. There's room to grow, there's room to grow

There's room to grow

Oh little girl inside of me,

I'm sorry for the things you've seen,

My baby darling

Nothing hurts quite worse

Than when the ones you love the most

Can't stop their suffering

Oh, ya know, my darling dear,

There's a light that takes away all fear.

Oh, ya know, my darling dear,

It's okay to be happy here.

It's okay to be happy!

Are we born with pain and shame and greed

Are we meant to house such suffering?

Tell me what you think.

I think we're born to live and love

And count the endless stars above

While we're here.
