I recently borrowed a CD from a dear friend, and was shocked to find a song on it that made me want to tear up because it was so effective. I can't even really say what exactly caused it, but perhaps it is because I value the interest with which this mother invests in her children. Perhaps its my own reverse-nostalgia looking forward to a possible future where this could possibly involve me...
Here is the song - enjoy! :)

Me
I haven't had
a chance to sleep
And when I wake
, I wake with your dreams
I guess my pillow
holds some kind of key
To your peace; your peace
Me
I wouldn't trade your love for all the candy
In this great big world
Me
I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky
To be the place you go
When you need to feel safe
When you need a kiss
It's me
I haven't showered and I tried to eat
But all your tears, oh they needed me
I need some time, some time to think
But then I hear you
And what you need is...
Me
I wouldn't trade your love for all the candy
In this great big world
Me
I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky
To be the place you go
I wash your face
to make room for
All the kisses of tomorrow
And every day that I get to be here with you
is sweet
Me
I wouldn't trade your love for all the candy
In this great big world
Me
I feel so crazy blessed and oh so lucky
To be the place you go
when you need to feel safe
When you need a kiss
Oh don't be afraid
Cause you'll have is....
Me
