I held you in my arms and
cradled you to my breast.
You were hurting so and
in my arms you'd rest.
I gently rocked you to and fro
until you fell to sleep.
Singing you a lullaby
of promises to keep.
Oh, my friend, how could
he hurt you so.
Don't go back to him,
please don't go.
You will find another love,
one that treats you kind.
Just give your heart another chance
and love is what you'll find.
No man or woman should strike another
Its not how love should be.
Time is a healer of hearts you'll discover.
That healing will set you free.
Until tomorrow you will at least be safe.
I will be your watcher of the night.
No demons here, no angry men.
From this guardian they'll take flight.
So rest and chase your fears away.
Let your heart be free.
Be safe and happy and be what may.
You can always rely on me.
