I'm glad I had those times with you
Made up for what we both went through
And it was so great hugging you
In those last days of you
I helped you button up your shirt
It somehow helped to heal the hurt
Gave me a closeness never seen
I was so glad you needed me

Once a man, and twice a child
Was so true for you
And that gave me a chance
To get close to you

I kissed your head before you slept
And when you died, I never wept
It was all locked up inside
You taught too wеll how to hide

Once a man, and twice a child
Was so truе for you
And that gave me a chance
To get close to you

Once a man, and twice a child
Was so true for you
And that gave me a chance
To get close to you

I don't know what else I can say
But I thought I'd never see the day
When I could be at peace with you
It just shows what love can do

Once a man, and twice a child
Was so true for you
And that gave me a chance
To show how I loved you
