My favorite 'girl' song. These lyrics have a lot of meaning behind them, and a lot of emotion went into recording this song. A few lines in this song can be applied not only to relationships, but to life in general - so read the lyrics.

Story behind the song
This song is about doing what's best for someone you love. If you really love someone, your actions AND your thoughts should always be with the intention of making them happy.
I made this beat using Macintosh Garage Band - drums are a generic loop, but the piano and sample are all me.
Lyrics
Rockabye my baby
Don’t stop to cry my baby
Rockabye my baby
Don’t stop to cry my baby
“Rockabye baby, on the tree top
When the wind blows, that cradle will rock
When the bough breaks, the cradle will fall
And down will come my baby, cradle and all...”
when there was nothin left
i had to find a way to sleep
i had to find a way to keep
myself from gettin too close to 6 feet deep
and i cant repeat
the thoughts that ran through my head
i couldnt stand to live
so for a time, pretended i was dead
wishin on a star, that you could see it from my eyes
and now that you are, im wish it never crossed my mind
id rather you be blind, than be like this
reality frees the mind, but baby ignorance is bliss
what would it be like, who would you turn to?
when you had nothin left
who the hell would take the time to learn you?
nobody but me, nobody was there
i was what i needed to be
because somebody had to care
i know you needed somebody to share with
wipe ya cheeks and dot ya eyes
if you cant sleep tonight
ill come and sing you rockabye...
I promise it’s gon be alright
When i wish on this star tonight
Cuz when I wish on this star tonight
Imma wish for it to be alright girl...
“Star light, star bright, first star I see tonight
I wish I wish I might, have this wish I wish tonight”
I’m wishin on a star for ya heart
to start beatin for me
I fall apart, so frequently
Whenever you speak to me
i get so weak in the knees
but ya smile, picks me up
gives me a reason to be
every night i turn my head to the sky
wait for the sun to set, on the skyline
the night time to rise
soon as the first star shine, through the clouds
i’m already wishin on it, that you would just figure it out
LOOK AT ME NOW
helpless and hopeless
i hope you can help me
is it too much for you to love me?
you aint even felt me?
i feel, selfish for hopin
i feel, guilty for wishin
so karma’s gun is smokin
whenever you two are kissin
I know, what I want, but I gotta make things right
so i wished that he would love you like I do on this star tonight...
Make the rain go away, I dont want the raindrops to stay
Make the rain go away girl
I don’t want the raindrops to stay in this world
(stay in this world they cant stay in this world)
“Rain rain, go away, come again some other day
My, lonliness won’t go away
So, come again some other day”
I can feel it rainin on me, but im makin the rain
Dont know how it happened to me, but Im takin the pain
i swallow my hollow heart, close my heavy eyes
my lungs are screamin to scream
but im not ready to die!
Im not ready to throw away my life so throw away the knives
Gimme somethin to write on, right on
Give my pen a pad to cry on
because my ink tears will live, years and years
even after im gone
so you will know forever how i felt
when i felt, what i felt, when i fell
over this girl, you are my angel my soul
you are my core my essence
you are my world my baby
my little sliver of heaven
wrapped in beautiful skin
whatever mood that ya in
I love ya blues and sins
when ya lose and win
you saw my love for what it is
but you just didnt, feel the same
by no fault of yer own
now i gotta feel the rain
and i can feel the rain
