Lullaby
that night, before she had to say goodbye she sang her baby a lullaby
she held her baby tight it took all her might not to cry she was broken inside
that baby was all she seeked but something she couldn't keep
even though her heart was broken in two she knew this was the right thing to do
she loved this baby with all her heart she didn't want them to be apart
as the baby feel asleep she felt like she was drowning way to deep
what would her baby think if she left this was God's gift
she wished she didn't have to say goodbye as she hummed her lullaby
this baby girl as beautiful as a pearl
as she ended her lullaby, she started to cry it was time to say goodbye
she loves her baby with all her heart this is why they are apart
