I’ve Heard This One Before

I’ve Heard This One Before

Oh, little one, stop crying now,

For you are now safe and sound.

Just settle down within my arms.

Let your heart now cease to pound.

Rest your head upon my chest

And rest your troubled mind.

It really is quite pleasant, dear,

To take you from behind.

No, don’t scream from pain or fear.

Don’t anyone disturb.

You’re all right within my arms,

So don’t you me perturb!

There, there, it’s over now.

That wasn’t so very bad.

It’s just because I love you so.

Now aren’t you very glad?

ã19 June 1992, Daphne Yvonne Bradshaw.
