Teddy by Lacy Pittman
You tell me my Teddy isn't alive
but how come when I cry
Teddy's eyes bore into me
and see my insides
and he helps me to stop my
cry
You tell me my Teddy has no
soul
but how come Teddy never
lets go?
How come Teddy feels so
real
when I hug him
my heart reels
He grabs my heart
and grips my soul
I know Teddy'll never let
go
You tell me that when I go
to heaven above
God'll say no
To Teddy that waits
at the pearly gates
to be let in
with me, his friend?
But Teddy was there
when no one else cared
Teddy held me when I was
alone
Teddy didn't interrupt
when I told him why I was
sad
Teddy didn't say a word
when I pushed him while I
was mad
Teddy didn't put up a fight
Teddy didn't tell me what
it is that's right.
So mom I want to let you
know
that Teddy has got to come
when I go
even though you told me,
mom
That he's not alive,
"Teddy going to heaven is
wrong"
I know the truth
He's always there
Teddy knows how to care
he's my angel that takes
care of me
and I promised I'd pay him
back
and take him with me.
So to you Teddy
you're never my foe
I'll always love you
and to heaven you'll go!
