Breathe deep, my love, breathe deep
Soon your troubles will be over, and you will sleep
Remember every day
That following it is a night
Where nothing can hurt you
Because I am here
Protecting your dreams
And holding everything together
You might not see me
No one always does
But if you have faith,
I’ll never leave your side
So breathe deep, my love, breathe deep
Soon your troubles will be over, and you will sleep
I will guard you as you rest
Keep others out at your request
For nothing matters more to me
Than giving sleep to the weary.
