Good night, my child, now the sun is sleeping May God protect you until you rise A prayer for those who are cold and weeping And bring some hope to our children's eyes A father gone and a mother broken For selfish dreams we compromise The deepest pain that we leave unspoken Is screaming from our children's eyes If you love them You'll always compensate for worldly lack If you lose them You may never get them back They cry for bread and a cup of water We give them promises and lies A sea of tears soon will overcome us Falling from our children's eyes Oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh... Oh-oh-oh... Ooh, if you love them You'll always compensate for worldly lack If you lose them You may never get them back So while we fight for the earth and oceans The orphaned souls will be our demise If man is measured by his emotions I see a void in our children's eyes Oh, if you love them Keep them safe from harm Please protect them And hold them in your arms And bring some hope to our children's eyes Bring them hope Give them peace Show them love in your eyes Heaven's peace...
