This is a lullaby, lullaby For all the weary souls Who have their eyes wide Eyes wide-open at nightfall When you can't answer why And no one hears your heart-cries This is a lullaby, lullaby for you
Sleep now, angel Don't be afraid Dry your eyes, angel It's all gonna be okay The darkness will become like morning light And hope will still shine in a moonrise So sleep now, angel Don't be afraid of the dark
This is a melody, melody For all the sons and daughters Who feel like hope is lost at sea Slipping through fingers like water Your life is like a precious stone And your heart holds heaven's song This is a melody, melody to you
Hush, little baby, don't you cry Lift your eyes to the heavens I am by your side
