Lover’s Lullaby (worktape)

[Verse 1]
Lay down now in slumber
Mama's boy is torn asunder
All the fields have gone grey
All the leaves have gone brown
Let me tell you a story
Lay down, I know you're weary
While the star's in the sky
While the moon's on the rise

[Chorus]
Lay down and don't you wake 'til morning
Close your eyes and helpless through the night
Lay down and dream of love and glory
This is a lover's lullaby

[Verse 2]
Once was a magician
Fair he was, and handsome
And he brought to the table
Fool's gold and wine
Well he promised us three favors
Said he was the Savior
Well we drank all his glory
And borrowed all his time

[Chorus]
Lay down and don't you wake 'til mornin'
Close your eyes and helpless through the night
Lay down and dream of love and glory
This is a lover's lullaby

[Verse 3]
This is my song for you
Hold you close the whole night through
While the star's in the sky
While the moon's on the rise

[Chorus]
Lay down and don't you wake 'til morning
Oh, close your eyes and helpless through the night
Lay down and dream of love and glory
This is a lover's lullaby
