I looked into her eyes
and saw only sadness
O baby of mine
what's hurting you?

I spoke to her
she began crying
my child, my love
can I wipe those tears?

Do you realize
how much it's killing me
to see you this way
powerless to help?

When something hurts you
it hurts me too
I would gladly lay down
my life for you

I can't make the pain
go away
I only wish I could
but I can only watch

i want only peace
in your life
happiness to replace
the sadness you feel

I want for you
better than I have
for myself
I want the hurt gone

I wish I could
just hold you
and tell you
That things will be ok
