The Cradle

Yes
I must be off
but I'll return
another day
I'll dwell on you
'til then
and love you
though
you're miles away
when morning comes
tomorrow
well
you cannot conceive
how much
I will long for you
so please
before I leave

Hold me in your arms
and rock me
like
a newborn baby
hold me in your arms
once more
and
forever won't you
hold me in your arms
and rock me
in the cradle
of
your love

Turning
in my sleep
searching
for you
in my dreams
reaching out
in love
nighttime is
my enemy
when darkness
falls
around me
my mind
belongs to you
and if I could
you know I would
make this dream
come true

And hold you
in my arms
and rock you
like
a newborn baby
hold you
in my arms
once more
and forever
maybe
hold you
in my arms
and rock you
in the cradle
of my love

For all the times
I hurt you
oh
for all
the pain
I can only say
I'm sorry
and if I could
I would
again

Hold you
in my arms
and rock you
like
a newborn baby
hold you
in my arms
once more
and forever
maybe
hold you
in my arms
and rock you
in the cradle
of my love
