When you were a young girl And your prayers were said Your mother would start singing As you lay in bed
Close your eyes, drift away Tell the day goodbye And you would never hear the end Of her lullaby
And back when I was little Frightened by the night You’d start singing softly And it would be all right
Close your eyes, drift away Tell the day goodbye And I would never hear the end Of your lullaby
Now your body’s failing Soon you’ll slip away Though you cannot hear me Still I need to say
Close your eyes, drift away Tell the day goodbye You will never hear the end Of this lullaby
