Story Behind The Song
I was in the park reading, when I saw a man carrying his son on his shoulders across a small stream. I thought it was a poignant example of the importance of the bond between father and son.

Lyrics
I will love you my child
I will watch over you
I will hold your hand through the wild
I am, I am, I am...
When you fall and scrape your knees
I'll bring comfort I'll bring ease
When you stumble I will pick you up again
I am, I am, I am....
I will take you in my arms
I will shelter you from harm
On my shoulders you will never fall
I am, I am, I am
I will whisper in your ear
Small reminders that I'm here
on the breeze so soft, so clear
I am, I am, I am...
