lyrics

Rest now my darling girl
It’s time to rest your head
Sleep now my darling boy
Come climb into your bed.

Cause we’re all old growing older
And we’re all growing older
And we’re all going farther
From where we began

Quiet now my destined daughter
You’re safe inside my arms
Hush now my sorrowing son
There’s no cause for alarm

Cause we’re all old growing older
And we’re all growing older
And out there may be colder
And much harder to stand

Peace now my precious children
Don’t fear what light may bring
Wherever you go, you are my own kin
My love will set you free

Cause we’re all old growing older
And we’re all growing older
And the more you go on further
You’ll find me at the end.
