Remember when a child you were

Very small and in that form

Lying in that bed at night

All snuggled up and warm

And hear that noise on window pane

Yes, the tapping of the rain

 Teddy with you there at night

And he too would sleep the same

The feel of those new clean sheets

So taught and smooth and wrapped around

Your mother ironed them with pride

For you to sleep all sound

And for to lie in that big bed

Yes, not to touch the sides

No worries did we have back then

And on easy sleep did ride

Times now gone and we look back

Over many troubled year

To days gone by, in blink of eye

Now's time to shed a tear
