She peeks into his room again He's not asleep still he pretends 'Cause he knows she could use a good night's sleep She stares up at the summer sky In silent prayer she's asking why A loving God could choose to be so cruel She runs upstairs when she hears fragile footsteps And finds him kneeling on the bathroom floor And he says... Rock me like a baby And sooth me like you do I don't feel like a fighter tonight Hold me tight and get me through the night Make me believe it's gonna be alright He'll spend the night curled by her side Tonight the pain surmounts his pride He doesn't want to face his fears alone She won't accept it truth be told Her angel's only 10 years old Should be about 5th grade and little league She wishes she could kiss away the hurting She wishes she could hug away the pain And then she... Rock him like a baby And soothes me like she does She don't feel like a fighter tonight She holds him tight and get him through the night Makes him believe it's gonna be alright It's gonna be alright Rock me like a baby And sooth me like you do I don't feel like a fighter tonight Hold me tight and get me through the night Make me believe it's gonna be alright
