lyrics

You measure time

One year has gone since you were born
My little one, my pretty one
Daughter mine, you measure time
Like the wind in the forest
Like the grapes on the vine
You measure time
Each new step and each new day
You show me how
You learn your own way

The world is yet all yours to hold
In those tiny hands of yours
You’re not so old to stand alone
So don’t get cross with me
When I tell you to go to sleep
My little one, my pretty one
Daughter mine, you measure time

Live well, live long
Love the truth and be strong
And the ways of the world
They will seem very strange
You will know what to leave
And what to change
Have no fear
For the shaddows in your room
They are only the clouds
Over the face of the moon
The sound that you hear
Is the flowing of the stream
And may this go with you
This night in your dreams
