Lyrics
I sing her to sleep, every night. And the look in her eyes. As she gazed at the stars in the sky so dark, and I know it's time.
A man isn't judged by what he has, but what he leaves behind. And if you smile when you hear my name, I know I've done you kind.
Her eyes are closed she's fast asleep, so I turn to go. And the stars up above light my way ahead, and I'm never alone.
A man isn't judged by what he has, but what he leaves behind. And if you smile when you hear my name, I know I've done you kind.
I sing her to sleep, every night. And the look in her eyes. As she gazed at the stars in the sky so dark, and I know it's time.
A man isn't judged by what he has, but what he leaves behind. And if you smile when you hear my name, I know I've done you kind.
