Hush now little baby don't you cry
I feel your tears in my own eyes
You are now so close but yet so far
When you left you took half of my heart
I hope that someone's listening to you
When you talk or shout or laugh
And I hope that someone out there cares
They are feeding you enough
When I reach out my hand I can almost feel you grabbing it
I pray you don't let go pray I can always hold you in my arms
So close to me but yet so far
Hush now little baby don't you cry
I feel your tears in my own eyes
You are now so close but yet so far
When you left you took half of my heart
I hope your not too lonely or afraid
And I know you're hanging tough
I hope you think about me all the time
Just carry on even when it's rough
When I reach out my hand I can almost feel you grabbing it
I pray you don't let go pray I can always hold you in my arms
So close to me but yet so far
Oh I had a dream last night
You were running through dark tunnels
Though it seemed I gained on you
You were still too far to catch
I prayed to god to keep on chasing
But I woke up and you're still gone
And I don't know what else to do
Where to gather all the strength
