My Precious One

[Verse 1]

My precious one, my tiny one, lay down your pretty head

My dearest one my sleepy one, its time to go to bed

My precious one, my darling one; don't let your lashes weep

My cherished one, my weary one; it's time to go to sleep

Just bow your head and give your cares to me

Just close your eyes and fall into the sweetest dream, because in my loving arms

You're safe as you will ever be so hush my dear and sleep

And in your dreams you'll ride on angels' wings

Dance with the stars and touch the face of god

And if you should awake

I'll kiss your little cheek

And underneath the smiling moon

I'll send you back to sleep
