I Won't Mind |
I won’t mind sitting by your cradle |
Singing to you softly far into the night |
I won’t mind playing peekaboo for hours |
To see that look of wonder, wonder and delight |
Soon they’ll be asking «Where is baby’s nose? |
Where is baby’s shoe? |
Where is baby’s hat?» |
«Clever little boy,» they’ll say |
Lizzie taught him that |
I won’t mind reading you a story |
Quacking like a duck, chirping like a bird |
I won’t mind when you ask me to repeat it |
'Til you can say it with me, knowing every word |
You needn’t worry if there’s chocolate on your hands |
Jelly on your face, porridge on my skirt |
Run to me, and I’ll be there to hold you when you hurt |
They’ll say, «Auntie Lizzie can’t say no» |
They’ll say, «Auntie Lizzie’s spoiling you» |
They’ll say, «Auntie Lizzie’s wrapped around your finger» |
I’ll say, «Yes, it’s true» |
I won’t mind knowing that your mother |
Showers you with kisses, bakes your favorite bread |
I won’t mind when I see your father lift you |
And swing you to his shoulders high above my head |
They may be busy, I can take you skating |
I can take you sledding, flying down the hill |
If they won’t build a snowman, Auntie Lizzie will |
They’ll say, «Auntie Lizzie holds too tight» |
They’ll say, «Auntie Lizzie can’t let go» |
They’ll say, «Auntie Lizzie’s really not your aunt, anyway» |
You’ll say, «No, that isn’t so» |
In my heart, I will keep a secret |
Foolish little secret, hidden from the rest |
In my dream, you’re my own, my very own |
And I blanket you with love as I hold you to my breast |
Lizzie, he’s not yours |
Lizzie, in his life, your part is very small |
But, if one day, a toy should break |
Or maybe playing patty-cake |
You call me Mama by mistake |
I won’t mind at all |
