Song Description

Parental hopes and wishes for their children

Lyrics

Quiet as you sleep...precious moment that I keep
Safe in love, all your dreams right now are sweet
Beautiful is child, but it only takes awhile
Before you?re older, and...you?ll learn about

A grown up world full of pain, tiny hands with guns
Stories don?t always have happy endings
How am I to explain...why we?d hurt someone
Ending lives without rhyme or reason

(chorus) So I?ll be there when you cry
Try to answer every why
Tell the future I...won?t even try
So for now, I?ll sing you...a lullaby

Fairies and brave knights
Warm and glowing Christmas lights
All the memories we?ll build for you
Innocent and sweet...baby?s breathe upon my cheek
What I wouldn?t give...to promise you...

A world where nobody leaves
And your heart never breaks
And people are kind to each other
All I can do is pray
That the love we gave
You will carry in your heart
And will lead your way
Love will lead your way ...(chorus & lullaby)
