Tuck Me In
Please Sing to me a lullaby
breathe my name upon a sigh
dry the tears that I may cry
when sleep claims my soul

Please tuck me in with gentle hands
smooth back my hair's silky strands
give my dreams a place to land
and leave me hope to hold

Please place soft kisses on my cheeks
make words of love all you speak
understand my heart is meek
when you turn off the light

Please leave a soft glow in the dark
so no fears linger in my heart
tell me you love me as we part
and you say goodnight
