Breath Of My Baby

(album: Lukas Nelson & Promise Of The Real - 2017)

Lay in my bed
With the night in my head
The creak of the fan
And the words that I said
We live in a world
Where they laugh at the weak
But nothing makes me feel stronger
And nothing gives me more peace
Than the breath of my baby
While she peacefully sleeps

Just yesterday night
As I turned out the lights
I heard someone yelling
In the alley outside
We live in a world
Where people never sleep
But nothing makes me feel stronger
And nothing gives me more peace
Than the breath of my baby
While she peacefully sleeps

And no, I won't ever let her go
The world could fall
And she'd never know
I'd light the sun and moon
For her each day

And suspend us in time
With our bodies entwined
The breath of my baby
Colliding with mine

The breath of my baby
Breath of my baby
Breath of my baby
Colliding with mine
