Sssshhhh..........

Sssshhhh. Let her sleep
its cold and dark outside
she's on a journey of a million dreams
behind those closed eyes, let her hide.

Sssshhhh. She's a baby
let me watch her sleep
its been a long fall from heavens
cuddled up, let me her guard keep.

Sssshhhh. A stolen beauty
a rose amongst a million thorns
a serenade, she's the sweetest symphony
a painted yellow field of corns.

Sssshhhh. Let me drink away
every pint of grief, every drop of sorrow
let me stroke my hand in her flowing hair
she'll wake up to a better tomorrow
