Lyrics
My darling it's me, I would like to talk to you
I will always be there for you Do you know that?
I want to tell you that I love you that you are a dream
And watching you grow It's a privilege
You are my son, my blood, the flesh of my flesh
If your days are dark I will be your light
Today you are big, you are going to see the world
You will be able to see what is most beautiful
Put aside what is filthy
I'm empty without you I'm afraid to say goodbye
I imagine you near me And there I feel better
Maybe I'm doing too much, that's normal.
I'm a mom One who's just afraid to see
Leaving your child
Efforts for you I will never do enough
I feel like sometimes I didn't know how to carry you
Yet I promise you I have tried so many times
Yet I promise you I have tried so many times
You're leaving our house and I admit that it scares me
Out of sight perhaps, but never out of mind
You were the king of the world that I had built for you
I can't believe this is all over now
Like it never started
I who believed that I couldn't break away from you
More walks by the lake Afternoons spent at the park
Seeing you jump in puddles Or taking you to eat at the snack bar
Teaching you to cook watching you have fun
In the evening cuddle you Then take the time to rock you
Why did you have to leave Barely arrived you escape me
My son stays with me Please don't leave me
Where are you planning to go What did I do wrong
Was this your destiny? How could I have kept you
Don't you think it's early to say goodbye to me
Or are you mad at me?
Now I see it was me who was at fault
Why would you stay in such poverty?
I can't remember your father Can't make you proud
Of course you would have suffered. I don't have what it takes to be a mother.
I would have liked so much that you listened to all my words
I now feel my sorrow Which in my body abounds
My son I look at you But slowly you disappear
So I cling to you And to the dream that you were
Because yes
You were not born
And I will never see you
My son doesn't blame me
But I'm going to have to abort you.
