Hush now, love, close your eyes
Though you never opened them, still, I try
To sing you soft into the dark
To hold you close inside my heart
Sleep tight, little ghost
Drift where the lost things go
I never got to hold you near
But I will always keep you here
Would you have laughed like me or him
Would you have loved the rain and wind
I wonder who you might have been
If you had made it to the morning
Sleep tight, little ghost
Drift where the lost things go
I never got to hold you near
But I will always keep you here
I wanted you, I swear it's true
I would have loved you, if I knew
How to fight for what was mine
But I was scared, I ran out of time
Hush now, love, close your eyes
Though you never opened them, still, I try
Hush now, love, close your eyes
Though you never opened them, still, I'll try
