Cradle Song

        D                          
Sing a cradle song now as the light
         G
 fades around us
                          A    
And you breathe like the ocean, 
                  G
lying small in my arms
                  D                
See it all in a moment, you so 
         G
young and unclouded
                     A             
Shining bright as a lion, feel the 
            G
motion of time
         A                      
As the world rolls away from the 
  D
sun.
                       Bm    
I can feel your life burning, 
               A
unlived moments within you
                    G
Further than I can see.

           D                       
May the fire be your friend and the
           G
 sea rock you gently,
                   A               
May the moon light your way, ?till 
         D
the wind sets you free.


I remember your face as you cried 
for the first time

The cold air of the world and the 
fierce light of day and the cruel 
separation

In a world washed with tears, numbed
 with pain to unfeeling

May you hold to your truth as you 
walk the dark light of unreason

The stone walls which surround us - 
may your spirit fly round them

Like the wind from the sea.


Chorus

                    Bm             
May you never know hunger, may you 
         A
live with a full heart
                        G
The light stay in your eyes.
