[Verse 1] Book on the carpet Spine still open wide Your hand on that last page Fingers curled inside Murmured the words once You didn't make the end Head on my heartbeat Breathing slow again [Chorus] I'll rock you forever Even when your feet outgrow my knees I'll keep this chair a little longer For nights like these I'll hold this moment While the world keeps stealing weeks from me As long as I'm breathing My baby you'll be [Verse 2] You kicked off your blanket Same way that you do Hair in your eyelashes One sock Missing shoe You say you're too big now "Stories are for kids" Yet you still lean closer Every time we read [Chorus] I'll rock you forever Even when your feet outgrow my knees I'll keep this chair a little longer For nights like these I'll hold this moment While the world keeps stealing weeks from me As long as I'm breathing My baby you'll be [Bridge] One day you’ll read to someone else With my voice in your memory I’ll be in the edges of the pictures In the lines you softly speak (mm) [Chorus] I'll rock you forever Even when your feet outgrow my knees I'll keep this chair a little longer For nights like these I'll hold this moment While the world keeps stealing years from me As long as I'm living My baby you'll be
