YOU WILL BE MY COMPASS

Sleep little one, sleep,

hear the lullaby in the tide,
the beat of my heart,

smell the fish in the sea,
the salt in the air,

I will be your boat,
you will be my compass,

we will travel o’er the waves,
drifting on the endless sea,
just you and me,

from the dawn of days
through starlit, hopeful nights,

I promise to be by your side
for as long as you need me
to stay.
