Sleep now, you bundle of fear
These strong hands will put you at ease
Safe and sound, a love profound
Is ready whenever you need
I've been waiting for you so long
A deluge of blood and of screams
But I've never seen a more beautiful thing
Wrapped in a blanket of peace
This is a pride I've not felt before
For all that you are and will be
So keep your eyes up heaven's where you are
Keep the earth under your feet
Son, I can't promise I won't let you down
Not always the man I should be
But give me a while and I'll paint you a smile
There's nothing that I'd rather see
Sleep now, you bundle of dreams
Your strong hands will put you at ease
Safe and sound, a love profound
Is ready whenever you need
