On My Watch Tonight (featuring Edwin McCain)
I come from an island
In the Carolina sand
Where I was broke down and built up and reborn a fightin' man
And my blood runs red
white and blue
I'll brave the cold the rain the pain and the bullets, so you don't have to
And don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
Just care for your children, sleep tight
I'll keep you safe
On my watch tonight
It's a long long way from that island
And a long way from home
With the thought of you standin' behind me
I could never be alone
And there's a promise
I need you to make
While I'm gone you'll take care of love and I'll deal with the hate
And don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
Just care for your children, sleep tight
I'll keep you safe
On my watch tonight
-music break-
And don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
Just care for your children, sleep tight
I'll keep you safe
On my watch tonight
On my watch tongiht
In the Carolina sand
Where I was broke down and built up and reborn a fightin' man
And my blood runs red
white and blue
I'll brave the cold the rain the pain and the bullets, so you don't have to
And don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
Just care for your children, sleep tight
I'll keep you safe
On my watch tonight
It's a long long way from that island
And a long way from home
With the thought of you standin' behind me
I could never be alone
And there's a promise
I need you to make
While I'm gone you'll take care of love and I'll deal with the hate
And don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
Just care for your children, sleep tight
I'll keep you safe
On my watch tonight
-music break-
And don't worry 'bout me, I'll be alright
Just care for your children, sleep tight
I'll keep you safe
On my watch tonight
On my watch tongiht
