Lonely Lullaby

She's holding tight
She's closed her eyes
She cannot fight -
This lonely lullaby

She cannot move
She cannot lie
Its holding tight
Her lonely lullaby

The sound of the clock
That's ticking on
Is begging her to run
Now that the light is gone
And night has overtaken the sun

But she remains
Standing and waiting still
Beneath a starless sky
With a heart that's begun to fill
With a lonely lullaby

Tears are falling down her face
In the aging night
She prays for him to be found
Come morning light
She hopes to see him safe and sound

She's holding tight
She's closed her eyes
She will fight
This lonely lullaby

She'll be alright
She will fly
Within the night
To her lonely lullaby
