For My Son

Before I knew that you were coming

I was allready waiting

In my bedroom window every night

I would burn a candle bright

Like the light on a stormy sea

So you would come straight to me

Find me Before

I knew you would come

I loved you as the only one

In everyone I looked for you

Before I even knew

Before I knew that you would arrive

I could hear your gentle steps outside

And when darkness fell all around

When evil came without a sound

A star of night mercifully sent me

My wish for all to see

So you could be loved here

My darling

Before I knew you would come

I could hear your gentle steps outside
