Peter Hollens - Sleepsong Lyrics

Peter Hollens Lyrics

"Sleepsong"
(feat. Evynne Hollens)
(originally by Rolf Løvland)

Loo-li, loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
Loo-li, loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay

Lay down your head and I'll sing you a lullaby
Back to the years of loo-li, lai-lay
And I'll sing you to sleep and I'll sing you tomorrow
Bless you with love for the road that you go

Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay

May you sail fair to the far fields of fortune
With diamonds and pearls at your head and your feet
And may you need never to banish misfortune
May you find kindness in all that you meet

May there always be angels to watch over you
To guide you each step of the way
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay

May you bring love and may you bring happiness
Be loved in return to the end of your days
Now fall off to sleep, I'm not meanin' to keep you
I'll just sit for a while and sing, loo-li, lai-lay

May there always be angels to watch over you
To guide you each step of the way
To guard you and keep you safe from all harm
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
Loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
Loo-li, loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
Loo-li, loo-li, loo-li, lai-lay
