MY EVERYTHING

My little darling, drift off to sleep.

All that is mine, I give you to keep.

And, if you should ever need anything,

My little baby, I give you my everything.

My every everything.  My everything.

I’ll give you my home- a small apartment upstairs.

I give you my family- complicated and weird.

If you get anxieties about who you will be,

If you get stuck in your head and it’s hard to see,

If you get less than you want and more than you need,

Baby it’s cool ‘cause I gave it to you.

Every, everything.  My everything.

You don’t get to choose what you get from me.

It’s just gonna run in the family.

You can’t escape it.  Just try and be strong.

And, hope you inherit everything from your Mom.

Every, everything.  Everything.

Her everything.  My everything.  Our everything.
