Tonight your little cheek is wet With glistening baby tears, And baby heartbreaks hurt as much As ours in later years... But,oh! My sweet, tomorrow When you waken with the dawn, You'll find that sorrow's sped away And baby woes are gone! Yet I who watch above you In that alchemy of sleep, Know a deeper bit of heartache, For...'twas I who made you weep! |
