Wishing on a Blue Moon

Can I wish on a Blue moon

Would that I could

Would that it would work

Morning always comes too late

And yet too soon

The clock ticks on

Tiredness is my constant companion

Rest a distant dream

The nights feels so short

And yet too long

You are so peaceful now

Moments ago you screamed and thrashed

I held you through it all

And now I sit by your side

Unable to sleep

I stroke your hair and I cry

Your night terrors come and go

Night after night

Sometimes once, sometimes twice, sometimes thrice

Iv tried everything, all to no avail

Nothing makes them stop

All I can do is hold you , tell you I'm here & your safe

Mama loves you

Morning will come too soon

I will get no rest tonight

I will sit by your side

I am so tired

And yet I cannot sleep

But I pray that you will find some peace

That you will dream sweet dreams

Dream of a Blue Moon

Can I wish on a 13th full moon

Would that I could

Would that it would work

Morning always comes too late

and yet too soon
