Lullaby

O girl, here let me sing you a song made for dreaming sweet, sweet dreams.

O girl, I've written a song that has so little meaning, or so it seems.

Shh, don't cry. It breaks all our hearts.

Wipe those tears from your eyes, and we'll do a part

That will make you go right back to sleep.

Girl, here let me sing you a song made for dreaming sweet, sweet dreams

Of a world, a world without wrong and without cause for dreaming, for all is sweet.

Don't cry. It breaks Mommy's heart.

Wipe those tears from your eyes.

And she'll do a part that will make us feel like we can sleep.

Sometimes I just want to sleep.

O girl, let's sing in hope of a world that is coming with its good king.

A new heaven, a new earth,

And no sea to divide us or to frighten us.

And when you wake up, everything's new.
