Lyrics

There?s a place in my heart where I tuck you away.
It might not be right, but it?s easier that way.
Not being near you is so painful every day,
so for now let me ?tuck you in? from oh so far away.

When I hear you laughing it touches my heart,
But ?Mommy I miss you?, just tears me apart.
For now, let me picture your smile from ear to ear,
Little one, I love you . . . please don?t shed a tear.

Little One I love you,
Little One, I know . . .
Keep me in your heart.
Don?t ever let me go.

I think of you at three, when all the kids go home.
That?s the hardest time, so I try not to be alone.
I want to hear you laughing, as you come off the bus.
Little One I love you, please don?t make a fuss.

And who would ever think one single lonely year
would seem like an eternity to a little heart so dear?
And who would ever dream that the farther I would go
the closer I?d feel to you and the more I?d love you so.

Little One I love you,
Little One, I know . . .
Keep me in your heart.
Don?t ever let me go.

?Cause there?s a place in my heart where I tuck you away.
It might not be right, but it?s easier that way.
Not being near you is too painful every day,
so for now let me ?tuck you in? from oh so far away.

Little One I love you,
Little One, I know . . .
just keep me in your heart,
and don?t ever let me go.
Don?t ever let me go . . .
