Lullaby
Close your eyes, little girl
I'll help you wash it all away
What exactly did he do?
What exactly did he say?
You amaze me, little girl
Wuth everything you do and don't
So take a break from being strong
And dry your eyes from all his want
He can't get you when you're here
You heart won't bleed but shine
Just make sure to stay near
And give it a little time
You'll see, your star is out
So take some rest by my wing
And very soon, little girl
We'll take on the world and sing
