When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw you hang my first painting on the refrigerator,
And I wanted to paint another one.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw you feed a stray cat,
And I thought it was good to be kind to animals.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw you make my favorite cake for me,
And I knew that little things are special things.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I heard you say a prayer,
And I believed there is a God I could always talk to.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I felt you kiss me goodnight,
And I felt loved.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw tears come from your eyes,
And I learned that sometimes it's all right to cry.
When you thought I wasn't looking,
I saw that you care,
And I wanted to be everything that I could be.
When you thought I wasn't looking.
I looked..
And wanted to say "Thanks"
For all the things I saw when you thought
I wasn't looking.
