Mother and Child by Toni Paigh-Tomlinson

I won’t let my baby go
Not in a world like this
I fear that if I let him go, he’ll never return home
That if I let him go, he’ll be all on his own,
Not in a world like this
My beautiful baby
When you grow old, I hope you’ll know how hard I tried
How hard it is to survive,
In a world like This
Having to walk around with clenched fists
I wish you didn’t have to grow up,
In a world like this
