Go back to sleep now
My darlin’
And I'll keep all the bad dreams away
Breathe now
Think sweet things
And I'll think of all the right words to say
Because we made you
My darlin’
With the love in each of our hearts
We were a family my darlin’
Right from the start
Grow up now
My darlin’
Please don't you grow up too fast
And be sure, darlin’
To make all the good times last
Because we made you
My darlin’
With the love in each of our hearts
We were a family, my darlin’
Right from the start
