"Lullabye" lyrics

"Lullabye"

If I had a song that was big enough
For ever, love, I'd turn it up
So no matter where you lay your head tonight
You would hear my lullaby

Ooh, every motherless child
Ooh, every fatherless one
Let your heartbeat be the drums
And the wind the chords, and the stars will hum my echoed voice
Close your eyes, and I'll sing to you my lullaby

I wish I could be with you tonight
In the shadows as you walk
The light can't come soon enough
When you try and get back home

Ooh, every motherless child
Ooh, every fatherless one
Let your heartbeat be the drums
And the wind the chords, and the stars will hum my echoed voice
Close your eyes, and I'll sing to you a lullaby

Well a day is hard
And the world is mean
But the night is sore
And the air is sweet
You're sure to keep, devoted
Ooh

Ooh

Ooh, every motherless child
Ooh, every fatherless one
Let your heartbeat be the drums
And the wind the chords, and the stars will hum my echoed voice
Close your eyes, and I'll sing to you a lullaby

Heartbeat be the drums
And the wind the chords, and the stars will hum my echoed voice
Close your eyes, and I'll sing to you a lullaby
I'll sing to you a lullaby
Sing to you a lullaby
