Diana Ross - The Feeling We Once Had Lyrics

Put your arms around me, child
Like when you bumped your shin
Then you'll know I love you now
As I loved you then

Though you may be trying sometimes
And I'll need you
And you're not there
You know that I may get mad
And turn away
But you know that I still care

But you cannot ask for more
Than can come from me
I'm older than you are
And one day you'll see

If I lose my patience with you
And I suddenly start to scream
It's only because I just want you to be
Everything I see in my dreams

And I'd like to know it's there
The feeling that we have
When you know that you can come running to me
Whenever times are bad

Ooh, and I'd like to know it's there
The feeling that we have
When you know that you can come running to me
Whenever times are bad
Child, don't lose the feeling that we have

Though you are growing older now
And I'm watching you grow
I know I make you sad sometimes
I see your feelings show

But one day I'll look around
And you will be grown
You'll be out in the world
Such a pretty girl
And you'll be on your own

And I'd like to know it's there
The feeling that we have
Knowing that you can come running to me
Whenever, whenever times are sad

Child, I'd like to know it's there
The feeling that we have

And I'd like to know it's there
The feeling that we have
When you know that you can come running to me
Whenever times are sad
Child, I'd like to know it's there
The feeling that we have
