lyrics

I don't have eyes in the back of my head
And I don't wear bright red knee high boots or a leotard with an S
And I only have five senses, the sixth one's never there
When I don't know why you're crying and I just have to guess
I see you're having trouble sleeping; so am I
I've been hoping I know how to raise you right
I can't cast a magic spell but I can take you for a trip around the block
Rest your head now while I hold you tight
And I will walk you through the night

As we walk beneath the sparkling stars
Your body's getting heavier, you're finally giving in
And my mind slips through the future to the troubles you could have
And I don't know how to fix them, I just have to guess
You are bound to have some nightmares so am I
But you can count on me to hold you when you cry
I can't take it all away but I can tell you I've been down this road before
I can't promise that I'll always get it right
But I will walk you through the night

And if it's raining, I will drive you
And if it's late at night, I don't care what time you call
I may not be the best at very many things
But I believe I love you perfectly

Time goes by so relentlessly
And I hope that you outlive me, it's how it's meant to be
And I believe in heaven, but there are still some things
That I just can't fully fathom and I just have to guess
If God will grant my wish, I will wait for you
Beyond the veil just before you slip through
And as you softly close your eyes
I will sing my lullabies to you
And before you make your way into the light
I will walk you though the night
