Didn't I hold your head
Above the water’s edge, oh
And didn't I make a mark
On your heart

And babies don't hold me down
Anymore
And babies don’t hold me down
Anymore

Didn't I hold the sun
While the wings grew on your back, oh
And shouldn't I let you go?

And babies don't hold me down
Anymore
And babies don't hold me down
Anymore
And babies don't hold me down
Anymore
