All for You

Go to sleep
Go to sleep
Go to sleep little baby

Mama's gone away and papa's gone too
And left me here to stay and sing this song for you

It was a dark and stormy night
And then it was a rainy day
And then the sky was cloudy
Then the clouds all blew away
And then the sun was shining
But then off the morning dew
It's here and now and then it's gone again

It's all for you
So rock-a-bye my baby
Close your eyes and peek-a-boo
It's all for you

I won't make false promises
To do more than I can
I only know that I'll be here
No longer than I am
So when I promise you the world
You can believe it's true

It's here and now and then it's gone again
It's all for you
So rock-a-bye my baby
Close your eyes and peek-a-boo
It's all for you

You can try to hold on
But you've got to let go
It's part of a plan that nobody knows
Written in sand and sealed with a kiss
And it's gone like your fist when you open your hand

There'll be days when your little world
Will seem to fall apart
But you know it's always darkest
When it stops getting dark
That's life and what you live for
Is what you have to lose

It's here and now and then it's gone again
It's all for you
So rock-a-bye my baby
Close your eyes and peek-a-boo
It's all for you

Go to sleep
Go to sleep
Go to sleep little baby
Mama's gone away and papa's gone too
And left me here to stay and sing this song for you
