Lyrics
My sleeping babe is peace
My baby’s breath, perfume
Big blinking eyes and sleepy sighs
Let slumber fill the room
My sleeping babe is peace
My baby’s breath, perfume
A smile unfurls, her toes uncurl
My rosebud soon to bloom
Sleep my baby sleep in peace
Your daddy’s here with you
You’re my one, my only girl
Just ten days old my life’s renewed
Sleep my babe in peace
All is quiet here
A tiny nose and newborn toes
Gentle cooing in my ear
Sleep my babe sleep in peace
Lay down your head on me
I’ll rock you babe, my angel child
From bough to bough now fall sleep
She’s sleeping in my arms
Little babe, brand new
A downy head, my arms her bed
I’m always here for you
I’m always here for you
I’m always here for you…
