I hear sadness in your voice.
I want to fix it.
I hear your heart breaking.
I want to mend it.
My arms want to hold you,
Wrap myself all around you.
Give you a safe place to cry.
Your head on my chest.
Your pillows, my breasts.
I'd try to caress all the pain away.
I'd hold you tightly,
Until your breath became rhythm,
And sang to me sweetly,
As dreams swept all of your cares away.
Protected through the night,
In my arms you would stay,
Until the light of early dawn,
When I'd help you face your new day.
