Lyrics

The first time I touched your feet
You taught me how to walk
The first time I kissed your lips
You taught me how to talk

The last time I felt alone
You knocked upon my door
The next time I need a rest
I'll sleep upon your floor

The first time I felt your breath
You taught me how to breathe
And when I looked into your eyes
You taught me how to see

The last time I felt alone
You knocked upon my door
The next time I need a rest
I'll sleep upon your floor
