Johnathan

Rockabye, Johnathan, close your eyes,
Say goodnight to the day's skies.
Bid the moon farewell and kiss every star goodnight,
The day is over, don't worry now, not tonight.
Don't think about your pain,
Just sleep, listen to the rain.
Come morning I'll be there with you,
The night is all you have to get through.
Sleep now, sleep, your safe where you are,
Pull the covers up over your head, below the evening star.
Your strong but I don't know how much longer you can take it,
Please keep trying, never give up, and never quit.
I see the pain in your eyes, I can feel it in your hands,
You feel alone, no one understands.
I know you don't want the tears to escape,
But looking at you, I can see them take shape.
I wish I could hold you tonight and rock you to sleep,
Tell you it'll call be alright, Take away this pain so deep.
Why would anyone hurt an angel? How could she not love you?
You are worth all the love in this world, if only she knew.
Does she not see she bore something so precious, so perfect in every way?
You are perfect no matter what she may make you feel, everything will be okay.
I see it, I know I can't mend your scars, but I can hold you while you try to,
You will always be everything to me, I'm here, I love you.
Rockabye, Johnathan, close your eyes,
Say goodnight to the day's skies.
