Lyrics

Verse 1
Born with a broken heart
Right from the very start
A future, with no hope
This bed has been my home
It's all I've ever known
I'm too tired and weak to get up

Chorus
Tears in my mothers eyes
While leaving me behind
Praying that everything will be alright
Whispering hush-a-bye
Baby please don't you cry
Everything will be alright
Will be alright

Verse 2
Blessings bestowed on me
Surgeons from overseas
Will mend this heart of mine
They will serve for free
Sharing their expertise
with patience and with love

Chorus
Tears in my mothers eyes
While leaving me behind
Praying that everything will be alright
Whispering hush-a-bye
Baby please don't you cry
Everything will be alright
Will be alright

Verse 3
Now my heart beats new
And it's thanks to you
For the healing that you do
A kindness that reaches far
And it reminds us all
There are no borders around love

Chorus
Tears in my mothers eyes
While leaving me behind
Praying that everything will be alright
Whispering hush-a-bye
Baby please don't you cry
Everything will be alright
It's gonna be alright
