hush sweet child
run, laugh, play
believe in princely wizards
no matter what they say
cherish all those fairies
that safely whisk you away
someday they will all vanish
as you go your own way
confide in shining knights
that elf up on the shelf
the whispers of the angels
more than just yourself
abide by ancient scriptures
explore forbidden lands
embrace imagination
build castles made of sand
laugh for no reason
cry when you're in pain
smile at the sun
and dance in the rain
embrace the uncertainty
that's sure to speed your heart
stand tall and be courageous
always do your part
look forward to the moments
that send shivers down your spine
always know your truth
and have faith in the divine
don't be afraid to dream
and follow your heart
even in those times
you feel it breaking apart
there will be time for those all fears
things that don't make sense
never-ending tears
and all kinds of pretense
how could you have known
the world could be so cold
somewhere along the line
you were never told
hush sweet child
what will be, will be
but never, ever forget
you always have me
…hush
