Come back to my arms precious child

Come tell me the stories you've told

Come rest in my love and be happy

As once in the days that are old.
 

You know I've been waiting to see you

You know that I love you inside

You know that my love's never left you

I've called you my joy and my pride
 

But now there's a darkness inside you

I see there's a hard outer shell

You've hidden yourself in the shadows

Your anger is harder to quell
 

But I know that my son is still present

I know that he's still got his light

I know that my child's not broken

His light will shine out through the night
 

Come back to my arms precious child

Come back be protected by me

Come back to my arms oh my dear one

I just want to help you be free
