wake her
from the sea of white liens
and extract the fear from her dreams
cause beneath her chest
beats the heart that I live for
I'd kill for
the angels would die for


put love in her dreams
cause behind each breath
is the whisper of her voice
covers me
a blanket of love
that I live for
I'd kill for
the angels would die for

her heart begins to sink
from nightmares that find her
but she's not alone in the dark
no, she's not alone in the dark


I sing a lullaby
not to sleep
but to wake her from her pain
her green eyes flutter open
she smiles
a smile I live for
I'd kill for
the angels would die for


I'm suffocating the clock
to keep you
let's put away this night
my angel, made of love
I'm not afraid to lose you
because I'll see you in your sleep
sing you lullabies
and meet you in your dreams
