Hush My Baby Don'T Cry For Mama

Hush my baby don't cry for mama
I'm here always 
I never left your side
I'm always watching over you darling
See me 
hear me
Feel me 
I love you my baby girl
Im reading your favorite story
I'm holding you, hugging you
Be strong darling
Wipe those tears away
Mama is only going away for awhile
The Angels need my help
But I'm right here 
Now be that good little girl you are
Even though you are as tall as me now
You'll always be my little girl
Hush my baby don't cry for mama
I'm right here always
How could I leave you when I needed you the most
You're my baby, my world 
See me
Hear me
Feel me
I'm the star in the night sky sparkle for you
I'm the sound of the breeze singing to you
I'm the wind kissing your soft cheeks
So you see baby girl 
Everything will be alright
Hush my baby don't cry for mama
Go to sleep and dream of joy
I'm with the Angels watching over you
and protecting you always
And when you wake up in the morning
I'll be there rising up with the sunrise
warming you with hugs and kisses
Hush my baby don't cry for mama
I'm never gone for all you need to do is feel
Feel me in your heart 
I'm right there baby girl- always!
Hush my baby don't cry for mama... Smile!
