Lean against my shoulder.
Speak into my ear.
Look right into my eyes.
Assure me you are here.

Quiet me when I'm angry.
Comfort me in my fear.
Lead me when I wander.
Assure me you are here.

I'll ask for your opinion.
I'll listen and I'll care.
I'll quietly enjoy your presence
Assured that you are here.
