lyrics

One tired back and two sore feet:
This restless traveller's got nowhere to sleep.
Hungry now and feeling the cold:
A lot to handle at seven years old.

The rain plays hide and seek
And drips down on to
Her blushing cheek.

Little girl, don't you cry:
I'll stay by your cradle all through the night.
Go to sleep, close those eyes;
I'll still be right here in this lullaby.

Ten years on and still on the streets,
The orange lamplight crawls onto her feet.
Autumn's gone and winter's cold:
Another long night at seventeen years old.

The rain plays hide and seek
And drips down on to
Her frozen cheek.

My darling, my dear, it's okay to cry:
I'll stay by your cradle all through the night...
And if you're ready to give up the fight
Lay right here, close those eyes.
