Child

Your quiet breath

The world can take a rest

In my arms

The world can do no harm

I'll keep you safe

Whenever you may sleep

And I'll make promises

That I'll never keep

My perfect child

The gift of all tomorrows

I'd spare you all the darkest days

And hide you from all sorrows

My perfect child

The gift of all tomorrows

I'd spare you all the darkest days

And hide you from all sorrows

Your quiet breath

I'll always do my best for you

And I'll forget

All the rest I'll lose for you

My perfect child

The gift of all tomorrows

I'd spare you all the darkest days

And hide you from all sorrows

My perfect child

The gift of all tomorrows

I'd spare you all the darkest days

And hide you from all sorrows
