My Babe No More

She was just a babe when the heart break began, I kept you safe and I cared so
deep.

She was just a babe when we had to leave everything behind, start over, start
fresh you and I.

She was just a babe when I promised you the world and to make sure you were
never sad but adored.

She was just a babe when you would cry for hours and I did not know why, so I
drove with you in the car hundreds of miles away.

She was just a babe when we went on vacation and you would play hide-n-seek, but
then one day, you ran away.

She was just a babe when I sat up all night, crying and stressed, thinking of how to
make all our problems fade away.

Then one day you grew up and didn’t want to be around me anymore, you broke my
heart and didn’t care, but I won’t forget you while I wait a little more.
