Rest your mind,
oh and rest your head.
Fall asleep
in my arms tonight.

I promise to hold you tight
as you forget the world.
Please just forget
your world.
The world that was so unkind to you.
The world that dealt you hands you didn't deserve.

I promise to take away the pain
as you lean into me.
Oh please,
lean into me.

I promise to take away your worries
as you learn to trust someone else.
Darling please
trust in me.
I know it's not fair,
because I haven't trusted in you.
But please,
do this for me?

I promise you that it will be okay
as you hold on a little longer.
Please child,
hold on a little longer.
For all my friends who wish someone was there to hold them.
