Lay your head upon my chest,
I'll protect you in my arms.
Stave off the vultures who'd corrupt you,
Keep you away from those that harm.
Tuck your covers tightly,
And lay my lips upon your brow.
Protect you from the boogeyman,
And keep my silent vow.
Stand over you so vigalent,
And keep nightmares away.
Lower my guard for not one second,
See you through the night until day.
So go to sleep my precious one,
And know I'll never leave.
Just close your eyes and drift away.
I here, will always be.
