Go to sleep now baby boy

And have the most amazing dreams

Don't be afraid of the darkness

The darkness isn't what it seems

And you will sing yourself awake

And you and I will start the day

You'll tell me stories as we walk

About the man you want to be some day

So baby listen to your mother

Keep your nose clean and take good care of your brother

And if you need me just know that this is true

Angels are watching over you

Baby boy I know you're tired

Just lay your head down here to rest

Of all the loads I've ever had

You and your brother were my best

And I look down on you now

So sweet and funny; loud and brave

I know that you will never stop

Because there's always lives to save

But baby listen to your mother

Keep your gun clean and take good care of your brother

And if you feel the world is ending no matter what you do

Just know angels are watching over you

Baby boy your finally home

I dreamt for so long of this day

To finally hold you in my arms, again

And know that you are here to stay

And now were all here safe and sound

Just the way that is should be

With every friend that kept you safe

Now we are all a family

So baby listen to your mother

Come stand beside me with your father and your brother

And bring that angel with the coat and eyes of blue

I want to thank him; He's the angel that watched over you

Angel that watched over you
