Hush, Little Sister

Hush, little sister
You'll be home soon
Hush little sister
Come count the stars behind the moon with me
And I know you’re hurting so
If only love could keep you
But it's time for you to go

You’re walking on the edge of life
How the time stands still
You’re walking on a tightrope
I hear your words, sweet child

You’re walking on into the light
Like this could be the final thrill
And this waiting...
...in this waiting room

Sorry, little sister
I can't be there for you
But my little sister
I‘ll be along soon
Hush, little sister
Wipe those tears from your eye
Hush, little sister
I'll sing you a lullaby

Hush-a-bye, don’t you cry
Go to sleep little baby
When you wake, you shall have
All the pretty little horses.
Blacks and bays,
Dapples and greys,
All the pretty little horses.
Hush-a-bye, don’t you cry
Go to sleep my little baby
