Don't worry

Dance with me when I dance

Sing with me when I sing

Smile with me when I smile

Sit with me for a while.

I am not my illness

I am not sad

I do not cry

I do not wonder why.

Your tears do not help me

Your sadness brings no goodness

Your pain will bring no cure

These things I know for sure.

I feel cared for

I feel loved

I feel very lucky to be your son

I feel guided and never alone.

Now it’s time for me to guide you.

Be strong for yourself, not me

Be strong for Dad, not me

You have given me this gift of strength

And my strength is enough for both of us.

Next time you cry, ask yourself why.

Dance with me when I dance

Sing with me when I sing

Smile with me when I smile

Sit with me for a while
