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.'
