Lyrics

[Verse 1] Don't you know I love you more than life itself? Don't you know that you're my pride? And I would not have you walking through this world Without me by your side [Chorus] Go to sleep, my little man Don't you weep, my little man [Verse 2] I'd like to keep you with me all your life But I know I can't do that So I must try teaching you the wrong from right To keep the vultures from your back [Chorus] Go to sleep, my little man Don't you weep, my little man [Bridge] And when you're dreaming You can talk to angels So wipe the tears from your eyes And if there's demons That try to steal your breath away You can't believe that Know my spirit will be standing by your side [Guitar Solo] [Bridge] You saved me, you gave me The greatest gift of all Believe me, believe me There ain't no mountain that's too tall [Verse 3] I would gladly carry your cross for you To take your pain away But what I can't carry is my love for you Beyond my dying day [Chorus] So be strong, my little man When I'm gone, my little man You got to be my little man So don't you weep, my little man Go to sleep, my little man Don't you weep, my little man You got to be my little man So don't you weep, my little man Go to sleep, my little man
