Theodore I will always remember your face
Ruby lips never kissed me goodbye
Tiny hands couldn't reach out but still touched my soul
Though you're free, stay by me, Teddy Boy
You were born and that instant brought silence and calm
To a place of such sadness and fear
Sleeping soundly yet perfect - a moment of joy
When I first held you near, Teddy Boy
You never saw Annabella, your beautiful Mum
Never knew of the birds or the trees
Never cried but I cry for you every day
Being here without you, Teddy Boy
Theodore I will always remember your face
Ruby lips never kissed me goodbye
Tiny hands couldn't reach out but still touched my soul
Though you're free, stay by me, Teddy Boy
I had so much to teach you and stories to tell
About the stars and the wind and the trees
Silly games with your Grand Pa, and songs we would sing
'Cause you'd be, my best mate, Teddy Boy
Now your home's by the ocean with Henry and Fred
Where there's peace and a beautiful sky
But I need you to know that you're also right here
In my heart you still live, Teddy Boy
Theodore looks at me with his beautiful face
Ruby lips come and kiss me goodnight
Takes my hand as I reach out, and walks by my side
In sweet dreams, he's with me, Teddy Boy
I'll love you, for evermore, Theodore
