One of Us 'Eventually' Has to Grow Up

If you love me or if not!
If it's none or quite a lot.
Remember this...
My heart you've got.

And,
I'm not gon' leave you,
Alone.

That's how it is when I give.
'Cause I can not see you...
Or believe I could free you to be,
On your own alone.

Even if you disconnect your telephone!

Remember this...
My heart you've got.
If you love me or if not!
If it's none or quite a lot.
I can not see you...
Or believe I could free you to be,
On your own...
Alone.

Even if you disconnect your telephone!

'But dad,
Comeon.
I am in my 40's.
One of us 'eventually' has to grow up! '

~I know!
But 'why' do you want to do this?
And,
Overnight! ~

'Let go! '

~Nooo.~
