Lullaby

Half way through the night
When sleep's outta sight
I'll hold you in my arms and I'll sing
I know I'll be outta tune
In the darkness of our room
But I'll make those slow dances our thing

I'll rock on my feet
In the sweltering summer heat
And I'll hold you in my arms real tight
I'll twinkle on my toes
When a thunderstorm blows
So you know I'll keep you safe through the night

Sleep gently o baby o'mine
There's love all around you, you're gonna be just fine
Sleep gently o baby o'mine
You're gonna be just fine
Sleep gently o baby o'mine
Sleep gently...

Keep me up all you want
Cause even when I cant
I'll keep awake and hum and drone
I'll try to hold to key
When you're nuzzling me
And I'll wonder how so quickly you've grown

I sing this soft lullaby
For you my child
So when we're far away you'll sing
To a borrowed tune
On some rainy night in June
And a smile to your lips this will bring

Sleep gently o baby o'mine
There's love all around you, you're gonna be just fine
Sleep gently o baby o'mine
You're gonna be just fine
Sleep gently o baby o'mine
Sleep gently...
