When I was a boy and my mother left the home, I would cry like the world was ending. But it was me who she'd be thinking of, with never-ending love she was always sending.
It is the same with you and me. I have never left you and I will never leave. This is the way we'll always be. You can count on me.
Years past by and left my mother sick at home. I would cry, already grieving. So scared she'd die and I'd be left alone. What I did not know was she was never leaving.
It is the same with you and me. I have never left you and I will never leave. This is the way we'll always be. You can count on me.
As I become the man I am supposed to be, I'll hold you close, my baby boy, beside me. My mother's voice tells me I am not alone, and I never was, and I never will be.
James, it is the same with you and me. I have never left you and I will never leave. This is the way we'll always be. You can count on me.
