You'll be in my heart (to my dear daughter)

Come, stop your crying,
It will be all right.
Just take my hand,
Hold it tight.

I will protect you
From all around you.
I will be here,
Don't you cry.

For one so small,
You seem so strong.
My arms will hold you,
Keep you safe and warm.
This bond between us
Can't be broken.
I will be here,
Don't you cry.

'Cause you'll be in my heart,
Yes, you'll be in my heart,
From this day on,
Now and forever more.

You'll be in my heart,
No matter what they say,
You'll be here in my heart, always.

Why can't they understand
The way we feel.
They just don't trust
What they can't explain.
I know we're different but,
Deep inside us
We're not that different at all.

And you'll be in my heart,
Yes, you'll be in my heart,
From this day on,
Now and forever more.

Don't listen to them
'Cause what do they know?
We need each other,
To have, to hold.
They'll see in time,
I know.

When destiny calls you,
You must be strong.
I may not be with you
But you've got to hold on.
They'll see in time,
I know.
We'll show them together.

'Cause you'll be in my heart,
Yes, you'll be in my heart,
From this day on,
Now and forever more.

Oh, you'll be in my heart,
No matter what they say,
You'll be in my heart, always,
Always.
