Lullaby of the Leaves

[Verse 1]
Cradle me where Southern skies can watch me with a million eyes
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heaven's blue and let me dream a dream or two
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves

[Verse 2]
I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
A pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me, I've heard it before
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland

[Verse 3]
Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal?
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves!

[Bridge]
Rustling of the leaves used to be my lullaby
In the sunny south when I was a tot so high
And now that I have grown
I find myself alone

[Verse 1]
Cradle me where Southern skies can watch me with a million eyes
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves
Cover me with heaven's blue and let me dream a dream or two
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves

[Verse 2]
I'm breezing along, along with the breeze
I'm hearing a song, a song through the trees
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh
A pine melody caressing the shore
Familiar to me, I've heard it before
Oh oh, oh oh, oh oh, that Southland

[Verse 3]
Don't I feel it in my soul, and don't I know I've reached my goal?
Oh, sing me to sleep, lullaby of the leaves!
