It's a dark night,
Clouds hide the stars and the moon has lost it's shine,
But you're safe, child, where the cold cannot reach, so rest your heart in mine.
'Cause I will not leave you,
I'll stay by your side, guarding you all through the night.
And I'll be waiting for you when you open your eyes and the light fills the skies,
I'll be waiting for you,
When the day's fresh and new I'll be reaching my arms out to you,
I'll be waiting for you.
Go to sleep now,
Dream of bright new horizons, and things you've never done,
Let your heart rise, with the wings of an eagle, to lands you've never known ,
Leave all your cares and your troubles behind, somewhere beyond space and time.
And I'll be waiting for you when you open your eyes and the light fills the skies,
I'll be waiting for you,
When the day's fresh and new I'll be reaching my arms out to you,
I'll be waiting for...
You can rest here, there is nothing to fear,
Angels are watching above you,
There is no dragon that I wouldn't fight to defend you.
Leave all your cares and your troubles behind, somewhere beyond space and time.
I'll be waiting for you when you open your eyes and the light fills the skies,
I'll be waiting for you,
When the day's fresh and new I'll be reaching my arms out to you,
I'll be waiting for you,
I'll be waiting for you when you open your eyes and the light fills the skies,
I'll be waiting for you,
When the day's fresh and new I'll be reaching my arms out to you,
I'll be waiting for you,
I'll be waiting for you when you open your eyes and the light fills the skies,
I'll be waiting for you,
When the day's fresh and new I'll be reaching my arms out to you,
I'll be waiting for you.
