Lullaby

I am smitten, I think I like it, I cannot think a thought
That is clearer than the picture of you inside my heart
All the right words are a failure, but I’ll struggle anyway
You are lethal to independence, but I like my self this way
So don’t change, no way
All the best things are the clear things, take my hand babe please don’t cry
All the best things are the pure things, and this is my best lullaby
So don’t change, no way
I am scattered, beaten, battered, but I’m smiling anyway
Cause you are near me and always will be till I’m lying in my grave
I was bleeding, now I’m healing and everything is new
The world is burning, shaking, turning, but all I see is you
And that won’t change, no way
Try as I might, this is my best lullaby
Up all night, can’t you see I love you more than life?
And that won’t change, no way
Cause all the best things are the clear things that you never can explain
Like when I see you, I want to be you to be beautiful that way
All the best things are the pure things, I could stare at you all day
When you see me do you feel me do you see me the same way?
