Lyrics

[Verse 1]
When you're so lonely, lyin' in bed
Night's closed it's eyes, but you can't rest your head
Everyone's sleepin' all through the house
You wish you could dream but forgot to somehow
[Verse 2]
Sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby to yourself
[Verse 3]
And if you are waitin', waitin' for me
Know I'll be home soon, darling, I guarantee
I'll be home Sunday, just in one week
Dry up your tears if you start to weep
[Verse 4]
And sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby to yourself
[Verse 5]
Lullaby, I'm not nearby
Sing this lullaby to yourself
Don't you cry, no, don't you cry
Sing this lullaby to yourself
[Verse 6]
'Cause when I arrive, dear, it won't be that long
No, it won't seem like anytime that I've been gone
It ain't the first time, it won't be the last
Won't you remember these words to help the time pass?
[Verse 7]
So, when you're so lonely, lyin' in bed
Night's closed it's eyes, but you can't rest your head
Everyone's sleepin' all through the house
You wish you could dream but forgot to somehow
[Verse 8]
Sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby to yourself
Sing this lullaby, sing this lullaby
Sing this lullaby to yourself
