Sleep Now...
Take my hand and hold it tight, as you sleep throughout the night.
Let this light not pass you bye, in my heart you'll never die.
There must be something that I can do, just to show that my love is ture!
I wish there was something that I could say, please proctect my baby in every way!
Sleep now and let this pain just past, tomorrow my not come but today never last.
As I look onto my baby face, there has to be a better place!
No more pain for you and I, as my life ends I'll say goodbye!
I never meant to treat you so wrong, don't worry cause this pain won't last for to long.
When you awake you'll be without me, I failed you as a father so this is how it has to be!
I've traded my life for worthless things, thats why your new life will be better than it seems!
I lived my life full of hate, but because of you, you have change my fate!
How can I be a better man, my baby is dieing and he needs a helping hand.
My baby needs a new heart right here and now, that's why I'm willing to lay my life down!
I wish it could have been another way, but I'm the only one who can take that pain away.
I'll sacrifice my life to make you happy, so don't worry bout me because I'm only napping!
Sleep now and hold my hand tight, just know that daddy love you with all of his might!
Now its time for me to sleep, as I fill my body getting weak!
I will sleep now and forever more, but it was your love that gave me so much more!
I'm happy to do this just for you, so I'll say goodbye and I love you too!
