The Rocker —

Every mother needs one,
Every child does, too.
The rhythmic to and fro,
Just me and you

In synchrony.

Where would the world be
Without the rocking chair?
Think of the memories I'll have
Of rocking you there

In synchrony.

Even when you are grown
And I am stooping low,
This is our chair of love
Where we rocked

In synchrony.
