In My Arms

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

Be the first
