I wish to lay down my head
in your lap
and cry
as you play with my hair
to feel the love
and protection you share
your arms are strong
but your heart is the muscle I need
to feel that I belong
am loved
am safe
from my own doubts
and fears
my own hands
I wish to lay down my head
in your lap
and cry
as you stroke my hair

I wish to lay down my head
in your lap
and cry
as you play with my hair
to feel the love

your arms are strong
but your heart is the muscle I need
to feel that I belong
am loved
am safe
from my own doubts
and fears
my own hands
I wish to lay down my head
in your lap
and cry
as you stroke my hair
