If someone tucked me in to sleep...

Gently give me butterfly kisses,

Maybe, I wont have to count my sheep.

I wonder if the Lord can hear-

My prayers every night...

And all the wishes that I make,

On stars that shine so bright...

I wonder if I'll ever have,

A mom to make my toast...

A dad to teach me how to fish-

And grannies to love me most!

I wonder if I'll ever have...

A family to call mine.

I'll promise God I'll be so good.

Any family would be fine!

and try to count my sheep...

Maybe, someday, I will be heard...

Before I go to sleep....
