When You Sleep

so patiently they wait
for the given birth date
while buying clothes
and dipers
through modern technology
they watch so carefully
the growing little fingers

good night miracle
of love
sleep tight, I'll sing you a lullaby

after nine months
in the womb
you were finally
born in June
a new member in
the family
at the fire they sit
you're lying in
the cribb
rocked by mom and daddy

good night miracle
of love
sleep tight, I'll sing you a lullaby

cause when you sleep
you look like an angel
you look like
an angel to me
oh when you sleep
you look like an angel
you look like an
angel to me

a fever since yesterday
new teeth are on
their way
the growing pains
have started
every minute that
you live
is a miracle God gives
the heavens are delighted

good night miracle
of love
sleep tight, I 'll
sing you a lullaby
oh when you sleep
you look like an angel
you look like an angel to me
oh when you sleep
you look like an angel
you look like an
angel to me
oh when you sleep

our hardened hearts melted like wax
the day you came into our lives
enchanted by your laughing cracks
and very soon you'll
be baptised

miracle of love,
sleep tight
I'll sing you a lullaby

cause when you sleep
you look like an angel
you look like
an angel to me
oh when you sleep
you look like an angel
you look like
an angel to me
oh when you sleep
