I understand now,
Why you ask so many questions
I understand now,
Why you always called while I was away
I understand now,
Why you punished my when I got into trouble
I understand now,
Why you were always worried
I understand now,
Why you want to know where I am at
I understand now,
Why you want me inside when it gets dark
I understand now,
Why I can't go to the mall alone
I understand now,
Why you want me to check in with you every hour on the phone when I'm at a friends' house
What I don't understand, though
Is why you care so much
And how, every time I get injured,
You are soft to the touch
