Hush Little Baby

I'll kiss you all over your head when you're here
And I won't let you out of my sight
It's definite that I won't drink as much beer
And I won't sleep half as much at night

And I'll watch you learn all the things that I've learnt
And repeat all the words that I've spoken
And I'll have to watch from the side of the lines
The first time that you have your heart broken

And I'll see myself in you
And you won't see any of me
All that I know is you'll watch me get old
Something I never thought I would be

Hush little baby, don't you cry
I swear that I'll never leave your side
And if I did, remember this
Love like ours never dies

I'm not sure that I'll be ready for you
Yet I feel like I have always been
There's so many things that I'll say not to do
And they're probably the stuff of your dreams

I've made mistakes, so I'll let you make yours
And I'll try to be strict when I need to
But there's not many things I can promise for sure
But I know that I can't wait to meet you

And I'll see myself in you
And you won't see any of me
All that I know is you'll watch me get old
Something I never thought I would be

Well, hush little baby, don't you cry
I swear that I'll never leave your side
And if I did, remember this
Love like ours never dies

I'm sure that you will ignore me
When I say that I just adore you
All of my friends say again and again
I'll feel like I knew nothing before you

And I'll see myself in you
And you won't see any of me
All that I know is you'll watch me get old
Something I never thought I would be

Oh, hush little baby, don't you cry
I swear that I'll never leave your side
And if I did, remember this
Love like ours never dies
