Lyrics
Hold me, light of the world
Seeking comfort and support from a source referred to as the "light of the world."
Love me, say you love me
Desiring affection and affirmation, expressing a need to be loved.
And I will be free
Connecting the love received to a sense of freedom and emotional liberation.
Sing me a lullaby soft as you can, I'm alright
Requesting a soothing and calming lullaby, indicating vulnerability but asserting that everything is okay.
I'm alright
Reaffirming personal well-being, possibly in response to the lullaby.
Sing me the melody strong as you can
Asking for a strong and powerful melody, suggesting a desire for strength and resilience.
I'm alright, I'm alright

All that I've wanted or hoped I could dream
