Trust - Mennen

Sleep tight, little one

A guardian angel is watching you

First chapter, an unwritten one

Few pages, life has just begun

I’ll be there for you

Be aware, little one

His plans are set, his eyes won’t show

Assume a teenager’s on the run

Became a stranger to the sun

Down below

Where the morning hour won’t bring another day

And no clock will tick your time away

The longest hours 'til you bite the dust

'Cause someone has betrayed your trust

On the news almost every day

Innocent smile when led astray

Safe and sound when I’m around

Thoughts of losing you this way

Killing me inside

When the morning hour will bring another day

You’ll spread your wings and fly away

Don’t want to let you go, though I know I must

Someone could betray your trust

Be aware, little one

His plans are set, his eyes won’t show

Assume a teenager’s on the run

Became a stranger to the sun

Down below

Where the morning hour won’t bring another day

And no clock will tick your time away

The longest hours 'til you bite the dust

'Cause someone has betrayed your trust

And the morning hour will bring another day

The outside world, yet so far away

I try so hard not to fear the worst

Someone could betray your trust
