Stay With Me

What did I clearly say? Children must listen No, no, please! What were you not to do? Children must see No! And learn Why could you not obey? Children should listen What have I been to you? What would you have me be? Handsome like a prince? Ah, but I am old I am ugly I embarass you No! You are ashamed of me No! You are ashamed You don't understand I'm no longer a child, I wish to see the world Don't you know what's out there in the world? Someone has to shield you from the world Stay with me Princes wait there in the world, it's true Princes, yes, but wolves and humans, too Stay at home I am home Who out there could love you more than I? What out there that I cannot supply? Stay with me Stay with me The world is dark and wild Stay a child while you can be a child With me I gave you protection And yet, you disobeyed me No! Y- Your prince will never lay eyes on you again He will never lay eyes on anything again What did you do to him? It doesn't matter Because where you're going No one will ever see you again! No! No! No!
