Текст песни Cradle Mev - Rupert Holmes

I′m so weary of actin' like a man
I′ve been a man since I was a child
Held it together like my hands were leather
And stood my ground when the world went wild
I've been the calm inside your storm
A cozy robe that's kept you warm
Oh, baby, won′t you let me know
This evenin′, can I let it go?
You've got to cradle me, cradle me, cradle me, darlin′
Let me be your boy tonight
Lay me to rest against your breast
And wake me come the mornin' light
You′ve got to cradle me, cradle me, say I'm a good boy
Tell me everything is all right
Tuck me in bed and stroke my head
And cradle me in love tonight
Cradle me in love tonight
Your protector is what I have been
Because your love is precious to me
Carried on my shoulders all your cares like boulders
And blocked the wind like a maple tree
But even oaks must take a fall
I′ve got to bend or I'll lose it all
Oh, baby, won't you help me, please
And hold me while I′m on my knees?
You′ve got to cradle me, cradle me, cradle me, darlin'
Let me be your boy tonight
Lay me to rest against your breast
And wake me come the mornin′ light
You've got to cradle me, cradle me, say I′m a good boy
Tell me everything is all right
Tuck me in bed and stroke my head
Cradle me in love tonight
Cradle me in love tonight
You've got to cradle me, cradle me, cradle me, darlin′ (Cradle me)
Let me be your boy tonight (Cradle me)
Lay me to rest against your breast (Cradle me)
And wake me come the mornin' light (Cradle me)
You've got to cradle me, cradle me, say I′m a good boy (Cradle me)
Tell me everything is all right (Cradle me)
Tuck me in bed and stroke my head (Cradle me)
Cradle me in love tonight
