Lyrics

I'm holding this picture - you drew when you were four -
It was one we proudly hung - on our refrigerator door -
I found it in the attic - in your old dresser drawer -
By a pillow that we made you - and a blanket that you had -
When we learned to chase the monsters - from underneath your bed -
And I remember -

How I learned how to hold you when you cried - I learned how to let you be strong -
Learned how to calm you in the dark - learned how to listen with my heart -
I learned how to watch you grow - but how will I learn to let go -

And when I walk in your bedroom - the memories that I keep -
Are bedtime stories - and rocking you to sleep -
And as I held you - you'd drift off to dream - and I know
It might sound crazy - now that you are grown -
But yesterday still feels - like the day we brought you home -
And I remember -
