Watching Guard (A Lullaby) by Cordelia Cross
From the album Twilight's End

A tender, soothing lullaby that wraps the listener in a protective embrace. Watching Guard is a heartfelt promise of safety and comfort, a musical shield against the fears that haunt the night. It’s a gentle reminder that even in the darkest moments, love stands watch — unwavering and fierce.

Lyrics:

[Verse 1]
Close your eyes, my precious one,
Your battles now are finally done.
The world outside can’t touch you here,
With me, there’s nothing you should fear.

[Pre-Chorus]
The monsters fade, they lose their might,
When I am standing guard tonight.
Their shadows dare not cross my line,
Your peace is safe, your dreams are mine.

[Chorus]
I’ll keep the monsters far away,
Chase their darkness, make them stray.
Rest your heart, let dreams arise,
With me, no fear can haunt your skies.

[Verse 2]
While you’re awake, they’ve chased your steps,
But here, my love, there’s no regrets.
I’m your shield, your steadfast flame,
No harm will ever know your name.

[Pre-Chorus]
No claws can reach, no growls can sound,
While I am here, no fears are found.
The night may try, but I will stay,
To keep the terrors all at bay.

[Chorus]
I’ll keep the monsters far away,
Chase their darkness, make them stray.
Rest your heart, let dreams arise,
With me, no fear can haunt your skies.

[Bridge]
And when the morning paints the skies,
You’ll wake to warmth, no need for cries.
For every shadow I’ve displaced,
I’ve made the light fill every space.

[Outro]
So sleep, my boy, and drift so deep,
In my arms, your peace I’ll keep.
The monsters vanish, the shadows stay,
With me, they’re always kept away.

Behind the Song:
