My Child

Peacefully you are sleeping
Silently you dream
And I cannot help but feel blessed
While watching you

Your eyes, my eyes
Your smile, my smile

Your love, my gain
Your hurt, my pain
Your laugh, my joy
Every time it's mine, you are my child

I will always protect you
Oh and I will even let you go
I'll spend the sweetest time holding you
And I will let you grow

Your eyes, my eyes
Your smile, my smile

Your love, my gain
Your hurt, my pain
Your laugh, my joy
Every time it's mine, you are my child

Don't ever be afraid, don't ever be afraid
'Cause I am here and if you start to fear
Just close your eyes and hear me say

Your love, my gain
Your hurt, my pain
Your laugh, my joy
Every time it's mine, you are my child
