A three year old made me cry

By sea of sorrow

Floating, in my sea of sorrow,

I glance across a crowed store,
to catch eyes with my nephew

Every emotion on his face,
shining free and true

His eyes burst open, he screamed my name,
jumped from the cart, ran up and gave me a hug...

Ah, a beasts only weakness...

Oh, why child.. Oh, why child..
must you remember me

You cannot comprehend the heart,
of the man you see

Soon,... I will disappear,
and I don't want you to shed one tear

Oh, please child.. Oh, please child..
forget this face

Or you'll be another name,
on the list, that i disgraced
