Those Things You Do

It's cold - you fetch me a blanket

I'm hungry - you make me something to eat
It's raining - you let me share your umbrella
I ache - you massage my feet
I'm ugly - You say I'm beautiful
I'm tired - You let me sleep
I'm unhealthy - You take me to the doctors
I'm crying - On your shoulder you let me weep
I'm lonely - You hold me tight
I'm lost - You show me the way
I'm grumpy - You let me whinge
I'm opinionated - You let me have my say

Why? I begin to ask. Why are you so sweet?
Stop being so good to me or I'll never find my feet!

I love the person you are
I love what you do for me
But I should do it my own
I need for you to fly free
I'll only drag you down
And I know one day you'll fly
You can't do it if you're my saviour
But please still remain here by my side

Lastly...thank you. Thank you for everything!
