Watching Over You

When they made you bow your head in shame
When they justified it in my name
When the lion’s fed and the wolves were through
I was watching over you
When I saw the bruises on your face
Someone told you you should know your place
When you split your heart just to hide the truth
I was watching over you
And I heard it when you called for help
Underneath the sky that fell
When you lost your way, little one, I knew
I was watching over you
I will lov you even if you stray
You are mor than just your worst mistakes
And your darkest secrets, I forgave in two
I was watching over you
And I heard it when you called for help
Underneath the sky that fell
When you lost your way, little one, I knew
I was watching over you
Every time you thought I didn’t care
Even silence is an answered prayer
Every time you wept, I was weeping too
I was watching over you
And no matter what the devil sees
One day all these wounds will heal
And the road is hard but I’ll get you through
I was watching over you
And I heard it when you called for help
Underneath the sky that fell
When you lost your way, little one, I knew
I was watching over you
I was watching over you
I was watching over you
