When i was young i had a Teddy Bear,
He taught me to love and not to fear,
Unlike my mum unseen, unheard,
My Teddy Bear was always there.

As i grew up my Bear was always near,
Helping to love and not to fear,
Time for meeting my mum slipping away,
There was only me and my Teddy Bear.

Now im gone, dusty is my Bear,
Still teaching to love and fighting the fear,
A life lived not knowing my mum,
But a life where my Bear was always there.
