Take your hands Your mother's hands And fold them in your dress All the time i've known you've had them out Flashed about And helping where you can Oh you give and give and give and give and it's Time to rest Now you need to breathe it in I want you to receive And go to sleep I will watch over you Nothing will go wrong I won't sit until you're strong I've got lots to give I've got all you've given to me All you've given to me Breathe it in Mama go to sleep.
