Lyrics
_____________________________________________________
Please tip-toe into the room when I am sleeping, for to wake me with your noise is to say I don't matter.
Walk slowly by my side when I am tired, for to rush me with your impatience is to make me a nuisance to you.
Remember how delicate I am. How afraid of the dark, and the light, for to force me to be brave is to abandon me in my struggle.
Please treat me as if I were the most precious person in the whole world, for if I am any less than that to you, we were not meant to be together.
