Hush Little Baby

I'll kiss you all over your head when you're here And I won't let you out of my sight It's definite that I won't drink as much beer And I won't sleep half as much at night And I'll watch you learn all the things that I've learnt And repeat all the words that I've spoken And I'll have to watch from the side of the lines The first time that you have your heart broken And I'll see myself in you And you won't see any of me All that I know is you'll watch me get old Something I never thought I would be Hush little baby, don't you cry I swear that I'll never leave your side And if I did, remember this 'Love like ours never dies' I'm not sure that I'll be ready for you Yet, I feel like I have always been There's so many things that I'd say not to do And they're probably the stuff of your dreams I made mistakes, so I'll let you make yours And I'll try to be strict when I need to Well, there's not many things I can promise for sure But I know that I can't wait to meet you And I'll see myself in you And you won't see any of me All that I know is you'll watch me get old Something I never thought I would be Well hush little baby, don't you cry I swear that I'll never leave your side And if I did, remember this 'Love like ours never dies' I'm sure that you will ignore me When I say that I just adore you All of my friends say again and again I'll feel like I knew nothing before you And I'll see myself in you And you won't see any of me All that I know is you'll watch me get old Something I never thought I would be Hush little baby, don't you cry I swear that I'll never leave your side And if I did, remember this 'Love like ours never dies' --- Hush Little Baby - Lucy Spraggan
