haleys lullaby

her smile it brightens the room
her heart a free spirit
but around every corner lingers doom
i have to protect her
you could call me a guardian angel
but im just her sister

my heart breaks
as tears run down her face
the pain
i wish i could erase
though she doesnt
have to go through it
i know it hurts her just the same
her safety beautifully ruined

my heart skips a beat
everytime she falls asleep
wondering if im gonna see
her beautiful smile
will she wake?
i pray God doesnt take
my little girl away
at least for my sake
selfishly driven
to protect my little sister
for living in peace
never for me
but for her i'll die fighting
