I never wanted you to leave, I wanted you to stay here holding me

I remember when,
You used to lift me up in your strong arms.
You'll make me pretend I was an aeroplane,
That I was flying way up high.

I remember when,
You used to sing.
Or you will whistle sometimes,
In a tune that we all wanted to sing along to.

I remember when,
You used to tease me.
About the littlest of things,
That could bring the biggest smile to my face.

I remember when,
You fell sick.
And I sat there in tears
Because I could not do anything.

Do you remember when,
I asked you to take me on your strong arms,
For an aeroplane ride,
But you were too weak.

Do you remember when,
I asked you how you were,
And you said it did not matter,
Because you only wanted to know how I was.

Do you remember when,
You used to ask me how it would be without you.
My only answer was,
Tears.

I'll remember when,
You would go to the ends of the earth
Just to make me smile,
Just to make me happy.

I'll remember when,
You left me,
In the cold, in the rain,
But with a smile on my face.
