Song
to the unborn
my darling i must leave you
so close your eyes again
these footsteps are my passing
but they will come again.
when your sleeping i will watch you
in the dark i'll hold you near
as the restless nights bombard you
i will lift away the fear
ch:
when you're walking throught nightmares,
or trouncing through dreams
i'll be the pillow
held tight at the seams
to sleep, my love
i can't hold back the sun
with restless indignation
you'll reach your teenaged years
with push and pull colliding
you'll walk among your peers
your sunset is evolving
from deepest dark to dawn
the rules are there in writing
to ignore and then move on
CH:
one day i will depart you
and leave a ghost behind
in picture books and memories
washed paler with the times
my darling i will reach you
when your voice calls me near
i'll be resting right inside you
when you wash away the tears.
my darling i must leave you
so close your eyes again
these footsteps are my passing
but they will come again.
when your sleeping i will watch you
in the dark i'll hold you near
as the restless nights bombard you
i will lift away the fear
ch:
when you're walking throught nightmares,
or trouncing through dreams
i'll be the pillow
held tight at the seams
to sleep, my love
i can't hold back the sun
with restless indignation
you'll reach your teenaged years
with push and pull colliding
you'll walk among your peers
your sunset is evolving
from deepest dark to dawn
the rules are there in writing
to ignore and then move on
CH:
one day i will depart you
and leave a ghost behind
in picture books and memories
washed paler with the times
my darling i will reach you
when your voice calls me near
i'll be resting right inside you
when you wash away the tears.
