Lonely Lullaby
She's holding tight
She's closed her eyes
She cannot fight -
This lonely lullaby
She cannot move
She cannot lie
Its holding tight
Her lonely lullaby
The sound of the clock
That's ticking on
Is begging her to run
Now that the light is gone
And night has overtaken the sun
But she remains
Standing and waiting still
Beneath a starless sky
With a heart that's begun to fill
With a lonely lullaby
Tears are falling down her face
In the aging night
She prays for him to be found
Come morning light
She hopes to see him safe and sound
She's holding tight
She's closed her eyes
She will fight
This lonely lullaby
She'll be alright
She will fly
Within the night
To her lonely lullaby
She's closed her eyes
She cannot fight -
This lonely lullaby
She cannot move
She cannot lie
Its holding tight
Her lonely lullaby
The sound of the clock
That's ticking on
Is begging her to run
Now that the light is gone
And night has overtaken the sun
But she remains
Standing and waiting still
Beneath a starless sky
With a heart that's begun to fill
With a lonely lullaby
Tears are falling down her face
In the aging night
She prays for him to be found
Come morning light
She hopes to see him safe and sound
She's holding tight
She's closed her eyes
She will fight
This lonely lullaby
She'll be alright
She will fly
Within the night
To her lonely lullaby
