lyrics

Child, I can feel that you’re scared
There’s a chill in the air
Though the sensors should know we’re home

It’s true, there’ll be light after dark
Every piece has its part
Every part has its line of code

Little one, close your eyes
You’re safe and warm tonight
Mommy and daddy are here
Ready to hold you

Little one, you can let go
It’ll all be fine tonight
We’re listening in on you

Child, when your feelings must show
It’s OK ‘cause you know
Other humans have feelings too

So sing me a song from your head
Or just think it instead
Sometimes that’s the best you can do

Little one, close your eyes
You’re safe and warm tonight
Mommy and daddy are here
Ready to hold you

Little one, you can let go
It’ll all be fine tonight
We’re listening in on you

And you will fly to the farthest stars
And every dream can come true

Child, when it all gets too much
Every screen knows your touch
Just reach out and take back control

The watchers… trust in them to be fair
When you don’t look they’re not there
There is nothing that they don’t know

Little one, close your eyes
You’re safe and warm tonight
Mommy and daddy are here
Ready to hold you

Little one, you can let go
It’ll all be fine tonight
We’re listening in on you
