safe and sound

it's the middle of the night
 one of my kids wakes up from having bad dreams
  comes stumbling anxiously into my bedroom

and starts crying in my arms
scared and sad and confused and tired
seeking comfort and love
i will wrap them up in my arms
wake my husband up
and make him sing this song with me to him/her

i hope it will make them feel better
and know that they are safe and sound

such a tender song.
i really like this cover of it.
