Lyrics

My little love,
The Moon is high.
The day is done
but sleep can wait,
for theres secrets I must say to you
See before you came,
We'd sung your song
We knew your name
So with breath held so tight
We waited through the days and nights...

Then the[B/C] sky it turned to [C]gold
And the stars shone to behold
The light around you
The day that you were born

Close your eyes
The night is deep
And I will sit
And gently keep
A watch till you wake
And thank god for the day you came to stay

Oh little one
It's time to dream of days to come
You'll laugh and dance and sing
And add feathers to your growing wings

Then you will fly
Your eyes like sparks of pure sunshine
You'll run toward the sea
And soar across the dazzling deep

But there's something you should know
Wherever you may go
Our love will find you
And hold you till you're home

Close your eyes
The night is deep
And I will sit
And gently keep
A watch till you wake
And thank god for the day you came to stay

There's one more thing to know
Through rain or sun or snow
We will love you
From your head down to your tippy toes

So close your eyes
The night is deep
And I will sit
And gently keep
A watch till you wake
And thank god for the day you came to stay

I'll keep watch until you wake
For the rest of my days
And thank god for the day you came to stay
