| Three a.m. on the clock
|
| Lullaby, music box
|
| Oh, baby please don’t cry
|
| Let’s let mama sleep tonight
|
| You’ve only been home one day
|
| You don’t even know your name
|
| Tiny hand on my cheek
|
| You;re a miracle to me In the still ness of the night
|
| Cradled in this rocking chair
|
| I hold all my hopes and dreams,
|
| Every single answered prayer
|
| In my arms
|
| Wish I could hold you forever
|
| In my arms
|
| I will give you shelter
|
| Still I know I can’t always be there
|
| To protect you from this great big old world
|
| But I swear this much is true
|
| There’ll always be a place for you… in my arms
|
| As I watch you take each breath
|
| Oh, it scares me to death
|
| To know you’re counting on me To be the daddy that you need
|
| Wounded knees, broken hearts
|
| Learning how to drive a car
|
| When it’s time for your first date
|
| Will I know just what to say
|
| And when you find that one true love
|
| I’ll put on my best smile
|
| And I’ll try to hide my tears
|
| As I walk you down the aisle
|
| In my arms
|
| Wish I could hold you forever
|
| In my arms
|
| I will give you shelter
|
| Still I know I can’t always be there
|
| To protect you from this great big old world
|
| But I swear this much is true
|
| There’ll always be a place for you… in my arms
|
| Oh, this promise I will keep
|
| As you finally fall asleep… in my arms |
