Mom can I hear the lullaby
Please
And there I was tangled up in marigold
We were listenin' to the reverent children singin'
Huh yeah
Hummin' low as the garden river flows
While the August light becomes a golden evenin'
Yeah
And I will lead you down
That road if you lose your way
Born to be a protector mm-hmm
Even though I know
Someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector mm mm-hmm
An apricot picked right off a givin' tree
I gave water to thе soil
And now it feeds me yeah yeah
And there you are shaded underneath it all
I feel proud of who I am
Because you need me yeah
And I will lead you down
That road if you lose your way
Born to be a protector mm
Even though I know
Someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector hm-mm
And even though I know
Someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector projector projector
I first saw your face in your father's gaze
There's a long line
Of hands carryin' your name mm
Liftin' you up so you will be raised
Even though I know someday
You're gonna shine on your own
I will be your projector hey-yeah
And even though I know
Someday you're gonna shine on your own
I will be your protector
Born to be a protector
