spoken word

10. Medea. Lullaby

Close your eyes my little man
Let me love you for awhile
Close your eyes ‘til it’s time
To rise and shine

I promise
Cross my heart
The earth can shake, hurricanes can blow
I love you more than you can know
I'll never let you go

If I held you
For a thousand years
Would that be long enough
No, no, no

If I were kept from you
Bound with a million chains
Would they be strong enough
No, no, no

How could it be possible
To keep us two apart
I would cut through stone for you
I would cut through my heart

So close your eyes
Sleep for a thousand years
Would that be long enough
No, no, no

(She raises the knife)
