Lyrics
She lays with him in bed at night
?Cause he still can?t quite face the quiet alone
He laughs and he?s her biggest joy
He cries and she assures her little boy he?s home
Mother and child
Mother and child
Mother and child
Mother and child
The slightest noise and she awakes
Or it?s too quiet so she can?t sleep tonight
Just one peek as midnight comes
In his dream it?s teddy bear and son, all is right
Mother and child
Mother and child
Mother and child
Mother and child
Teach him well the golden rule
Right from wrong, he?ll be no fool
Let him know he?s loved, and you?ll be too
Mother and child
Mother and child
Mother and child
