My little sister sings herself to sleep |
|
She doesn't know we're listening |
|
To her lullaby so innocent and sweet |
|
I've rocked her cradle 'til her tears were dry |
|
And chased away a sleepless night |
|
With a fairy-tale reliving the best years of my life |
|
When I look into her eyes and then I realize |
|
Everything she's going through will be her memories |
|
When she's older and wiser, she's making her history |
|
And everything we're going through will be our memories |
|
I'm gonna make them worth remembering for years, oh |
|
I'm gonna tell her when she wants to know |
|
But in the end she's on her own |
|
No more fairy-tales, just giving the best years of her life |
|
As a mother or a wife, a woman with a child |
|
Everything she's going through will be her memories |
|
When she's older and wiser, she's making her history |
|
And everything we're going through will be our memories |
|
I'm gonna make them worth remembering for years, oh |
|
Everything she's going through will be her memories |
|
When she's older and wiser, she's making her history |
|
And everything we're going through will be our memories |
|
I'm gonna make them worth remembering for years |
|
Memories, memories |
