Dear little me, if these words find you It's almost like we're face to face You've visited my dreams so often Though years have passed since those days Little one, you're lost in thought again Already dreaming of tomorrow I envy how you sleep at night Without a heart so full of sorrow The future changes without warning Some days will leave you all alone You might fall back into the darkness And wonder how you'll make it home But you believed in little miracles That better days would always come And when I struggle to believe I borrow hope from who we were Little one, you're still me So I believe in what you believe I'm trying to make these days worth living Make every hurt mean something to me Little one, please believe in me I'm tired, but I'm still on my feet Hold my hand a little tighter Lend me the courage that I need Little one, I owe you so much For dreams that couldn't last forever The beautiful things can disappear But faith is something I still treasure I've cried for things I couldn't change And doubted love that once felt true But every time I almost gave up I found the strength I learned from you Little one, could you take me in? Show me the days you loved the most Let's spend our love like we were rich And hold our freedom close Let's see their faces young again Their eyes still shining like they used to Little one, you're still me And I believe in what you believe When next we meet, I might be stronger Or more fragile than you dreamed Little one, please don't let go Some days I barely make it through Hold my hand a little tighter I'll be brave if I'm with you Dear little me, if these words find you I've lost some grace where no one could see I hope I haven't let you down Or failed the dreams you wished for me
