Lyrics
Rest your head now,
Your hardest days are with you.
Go on and cry (just a little bit),
Sleep a little -
Tomorrow's just within view.
I know your eyes are surely tired,
When I think of all you survey.
You reach out your hand for lucky stars
And you find they're miles away.
You reach out to me like I'd bring them home,
And grant every dream that you call your own,
All I could never do,
But every time that I see you fall,
I'll come tumbling after.
And with the strength of a mother's arms
I will gather your laughter.
Test your fears, love,
And stare them right in the eye.
You've got to yearn just a little bit,
Swoon a little,
And keep your head as you try.
And if the world should weigh you down,
There are things I dream I could do.
And if I could tame the winds of change,
You know that I would do it for you.
And turn over stones that are in your space,
Wish away tears 'til they leave no trace,
And still I'd break down,
But every time that I see you fall,
I'll come tumbling after.
And with the strength of a mother's arms
I will gather your laughter.
