Little Man

I have a brother I love more than me

He and his wife had a little baby

He hates sudden noises

He can't stand bright light

I suppose he'd have rather stayed inside

Little man, I wonder, are you happy, are you sad?

The one thing I'm sure of you're the smallest man I ever met

And you will see beauty

And you will feel pain

You're the little spark of hope inside my brain

I am so sorry about the world we put you in

I am so sorry I'll never be like you again

Little man, so much to learn and so much to forget

So much to give before I go to bed

I think that your first words

Just may be your best

And I hope that 'I love you' will be your last

Oh how I hope that you grow up to be happy

Oh how I hope that you will shed a tear for me

You wonder who you are and that is not unusual

'Cause no one's ever sure

Little man, will you remember me?
